Movement skills/concepts
Walking, dynamic balance and space awareness.

Set-up
Hard area defined by cones or lines; bibs or bands.
Children spread out along lines/cones: two children are taggers, who wear bands.

Activity
On a signal, children walk along the lines, trying to avoid being tagged. They can change direction, but cannot jump to other lines.
If tagged, a child puts on a band and begins to tag others.

Can you see …?
• walking only on the lines
• arms extended for balance

You could ask …
How will you use the lines to avoid being tagged?

Variations
Vary locomotor skills: Use skipping, running or hopping.
Modify rules: Children can jump lines, or coach/teacher calls out specific lines that are safe (e.g. only vertical lines or curved lines).
