All over

 It’s all or none in this game and here’s how things swing. You will need footballs, tennis balls,
basketballs, golf balls, etc. Split up the kids into two teams. Divide the play area into two
territories, one belonging to each team. Start a countdown and let the balls get rolling! The
team which manages to push in the most number of balls into their enemy’s territory within the
designated time limit wins. Alternatively, if the team pushes all their balls into the enemy’s
playfield and shouts “all over” also wins.

Elves, giants, and wizards

 A real-life twist to the classic rock, paper, scissors – if your kids love running and thinking when
to act on the fly, then this is a game-changer.
 You will need teams of two, a large space/play area and time. Mark out safe zones on the
playing field and split the kids into groups of two. Similar to rock, paper and scissors, the kid who
creates-A triangle with his hands on his head is the elf
 The one who raises his arms is a giant
 And, the one who holds his ears with the index finger extending out is the elf.
 Now that we’ve got the basics down, if a giant faces a wizard, he is free to chase it. However, if
the wizard enters the safe zone before the giant tags him, that doesn’t count. Once tagged, the
wizard join’s the giant’s team. Giants beat wizards. Wizards beat elves. Elves beat giants. The
game is over once any team has the most number of players in it.

Grab the dragon’s tail

If developing swiftness, hand-eye coordination and dexterity is your aim, then look no farther and
introduce your child to the game of grab the dragon’s tail! Here’s how you play it. You will need a large
space to play outdoors and 10-15 kids. Gather the kids and ask them to join hands together in a line to
form a dragon, side by side. The kid at the front is the dragon’s head while the last one behind is the tail.
The rule of the game is to get the head catch the tail while the body in between tries to stop the head
from doing so while not breaking the chain. If the head catches the tail, then the tail becomes the head
and vice versa. Strategy and swiftness are the milestones achieved by playing this game.
