How to Play:
Designate a playing area with clear boundaries.
- Choose 2-3 students to be taggers and give each one a pinny to wear.
- Everyone else should spread out around the playing area.
- The taggers try and tag as many players as possible.
- When a player gets tagged they become frozen and the player must go down on one knee. The player will remain this way until another player comes to their rescue.
- When another player comes up to a frozen player they must politely ask, "may I help you?". The frozen player will politely respond with, "yes, please". The helping player will then extend one of their hands to the frozen player and help them up.
- When the frozen player gets up they must say "thank you" and the helper will respond with, "your welcome". Both players can now rejoin the game.
- Switch taggers every 1-2 minutes.
