This is a favorite. You may find the rules to the right different from the ones you played as a child. Also, you might have called this game by a different name.
If you have someone who can’t easily get up from the floor, we’ve also played this while sitting in chairs. It’s best to have them facing away from the circle, though.
Tools:
- N/A
Materials:
- N/A
Rules:
Circle — All the players, except the first person who is IT, sit in a circle.
Duck — IT walks around the circle, tapping each player on the head, saying “duck” each time.
Goose — When IT decides to tap someone and say “goose,” that person becomes the goose and runs after IT.
Tag — If IT successfully reaches the goose’s seat by running around the circle and returning to goose’s spot, the goose becomes IT. If the goose tags IT, IT sit in the middle of the circle until another IT is tagged.
NOTE:
To make sure everyone gets a chance at being IT, you can ask who hasn’t been it and limit IT to choose one of those kids.
