DAY TWO: Hide And Seek MATERIALS: None. OBJECT: To be the last person found SET UP: This game can be played either inside or outside. Be sure to set boundaries of where they are allowed to go to hide. Where you play will depend on your facilities. If you have no outdoor space to play, don’t let that stop you. Kids can have great fun finding hiding places inside. It challenges them to be a little more creative. TO PLAY: One player is chosen as "It". While he counts to 50, everyone else scatters and hides. The person chosen to be it calls out, "Here I come, ready or not" and takes off in search of the others. If the person who is it spots someone, he calls out the person's name and runs back to the home base. If the person whose name was called beats the person who is it to the base, he can go out and hide again. If the person who is it reaches home base before the player whose name was called reaches home base, then the player whose name was called joins the person who is it to try to find the other players. To avoid cheating, those who join the person who was is it can be given a red piece of paper that they show to the person whose name they are calling out. This will tell the other person that they are trying to tag them before they reach home just like the person who is it is trying to tag them.(anyone who cheats should automatically be out of the game - they sit and watch) The last person called can either be the next person to be it or he gets to choose the next person to be it. His choice. Let them play a couple of times then sit down and talk about the way they were playing the game. Were they giving people a chance to do well. Were they trying to cheat just so they could win? Were there certain people who were always getting people out and not giving anyone else a chance to do that? Remind them that playing a game is about giving each other turns and giving each other a chance to do well. Tell them that these are some of the things that you will be looking at tomorrow when they play on their teams. The staff will be watching which team will be able to give the other players a chance to do well.
