Kick the Can


Materials: one can

This is a great combination of hide-n-seek and tag. A person is chosen to be "it." The person who is "it" must count to a number (like 50) while the other players run and hide somewhere. When the person who is counting is done, she puts the can on the ground. The person who is "it" tries to find the people who are hiding. When a player is found, he races back to the can. The player has to kick the can before he is tagged. If he is tagged, he is "it." If he kicks the can, he runs and hides again. "It" must replace the can before play can continues. This gives everyone the opportunity to hide again while "it" is replacing the can.

This is a fun and exciting game.
