Mark out a flat area, sized to suit the number of children taking part. The area should be large enough for everyone to move around, but not so large that the game becomes chaotic. One or two participants are ‘it’. Those who are caught can be freed by others giving them a hug, tapping them on the shoulder, crawling between their legs, etc. The activity is best carried out without poles.

Vary the ‘it’ games as you go along. Set a time limit, for example 2 minutes, and count how many have been caught without being freed. The next pair to be ‘it’ try to beat the record.
