Game Description: Watch out for the wolves! In this game, the wolf roams around his den trying to catch the rabbits as they run back-and-forth through the wolf’s territory. Action-packed and always great for a laugh in PE class, outside, or at camp.
- Using lines or cones as markers, create a wolf’s den area right in the middle of two safe areas.
- The wolf must stay in his den.
- The rabbits attempt to run through the den from side to side without getting tagged by the wolf.
- If a rabbit gets tagged, he becomes a wolf.
- A good idea is to have a stash of pinnies so that when a rabbit is tagged, he first quickly puts on a pinnie so you can distinguish who is a wolf and who is a rabbit.
- Play until all of the rabbits have been caught!
Kids loved this game and ask to play it when I give them free Friday to choose a game to play
We use pool noodles as taggers, so they know who is who. Remind them about safety: gentle tags, no sliding or diving on the floor. Fun game!
