The Thrill of Not Being Caught- Touch the Poll

Team AckoFeb 8, 2024

Keep running and don't get caught until you reach your destination. Doesn't it bring in some wonderful memories? Here is one such activity that implies the same feeling for children in the form of a game while it also helps in improving their gross motor skills.

Steps:
1. Make sure there are four corners with some distance between each.Distance will depend on the age of the children and their capacity to run. Keep something in the corner like a stick or a pole to touch.

2. Make teams if there are more children.They should stand near the opposite poles.

3. On hearing the whistle or some other cue , a single child from each team should run to touch the next pole and the next child on the team should try to catch the running child of the opposite team.

As simple as it sounds, children always enjoy the fun of not getting caught. This game also helps in strengthening the movement of the large muscles in hands and legs. It's a good exercise for them.
