You’ll need
Nothing at all. Just you.
How to play
Stand at one end of the room or yard with your back to them. They start at the other end.
Call green light. They move toward you.
Call red light and turn around. Anyone still moving goes back a few steps.
Add yellow light: move in slow motion.
Whoever touches you first gets to be the caller.
What it helps with
Make it different next time
- Change how they move each round: hopping, crawling, tiptoe.
- Use colored paper instead of calling out, so they have to watch.
Cleanup: None.
