What you need
The great thing is you don’t really need anything, other than a reasonably big area (depending on the number of kids of course), so that they can all sit in a circle, and have space around them to run behind.
How to play
- Get all the children to sit in a circle.
- Select one child to be 'on' to start the game.
- This player must get up from their place in the circle and go around the group, tapping each child on the shoulder saying 'monster' each time.
- At some point this player must select one of the children to tap on the shoulder and say 'ghost'.
- When this happens, the player must run around the circle and get to the 'ghost's' place before the ghost tags them.
- If they reach the place before being tagged, the ghost is then ‘on’ and must then select the ghost from the circle.
- If, however, they do not make it back to the spot and are tagged, they have another go at selecting.
This is such a fun game for the younger kids in the group.
