Circle games

Circle games are good fun to play with friends.

You could play “farmers in his den”, “ring-o-roses”, “French cricket”, orange and lemons” and lots of others.

Ask your teacher and playground assistants for some more ideas.

Line games

You can play lots of different games with the playground markings.

You can run, jump and skip on them or in and out. They can be “safe” places in chasing games. You can roll or bounce balls in them or on them.

Some markings are for special games like hopscotch or 4-square. You can make up your own ideas, too.

Parachute games

Parachute games can be great fun. Parachutes are quite big so you will need lots of people to play and an adult to help.

For most games everyone holds the edge of the parachute and moves it. Then some people can go under or over it while the others carry

on holding.

You have to be careful and quick, and all help each other to play these games.

Skipping games

Skipping is a good game because you can do it on your own or with lots of people.

There are lots of rhymes and songs for different skipping games.

You can even make up your own!

Catching games

Throwing and catching games can be great fun.

They are quite easy but you can make them harder as you get better at them. You can play these games on your own or with lots

of friends.
