National Recess Week (March 2-6, 2009) is how recess!
Not only is recess totally fun, it’s also a good time to get out and get moving! When you play outside, you’re not only having a great time with your friends – you’re also staying fit, active and healthy.
What games do you and your friends like to play at recess? Here are some Kidzworld faves:
Four Square h5s13
Draw a large square on the pavement with chalk, then divide it into four smaller, equal squares. One player stands in each of the president, vice-president, treasurer and secretary). To start the game, the king serves the ball by bouncing it once in his/her square then hitting it toward one of the other players in the other squares. That player has to catch the ball before it bounces in his/her square. If he/she doesn’t catch it, he/she is out and everyone moves up a rank.Horse 1972m
This is a basket. The first player to spell “HORSE” wins.
