Games For All Occasions

Games For All Occasions: Large Print By Mary E. Blain A RUNNING MAZE Form a long line of children-one behind the other. The leader starts running, and is followed by all the rest. They must be sharp enough to do exactly as the leader does. After running for a moment or two in the ordinary running step, the leader changes to a hopping step, then to a marching step, quick time, then to a marching step, slow time, claps and runs with hands on sides, hands on shoulders, hands behind, etc. Finally the leader runs slowly round and round into the centre, and can either wind the children up tightly or can turn them on nearing the centre and run out again. For another change the long line can start running and so unwind the spiral. BEAN BAG All stand in a line except one who is the leader who stands a short distance opposite the line. The leader throws the bean bag to the child at the head of the line who returns it to the leader. The leader throws it to the next child, who throws it back to the leader, and so it is thrown back and forth to each child in turn. Any one in the line who fails to catch the bag must go to the foot of the line. If the leader fails to catch the bag he must go to the foot of the line and the one at the head of the line takes his place.
