Does anyone know any gym games that kids ages 7 and up can play?
There’s a game we play at gymnastics that everyone loves. We call it the lay down game. It could be a little hard for some 7 year olds to learn, but 2 people start standing. One person is chasing the other. The goal is to not get tagged or else you become the person who is chasing instead of being chased. The person trying not to get tagged has to lay down beside a pair of two kids already laying on the floor. Whichever side the kid lied down on, the other side stands and runs from the person who is chasing. And so on and so on. When one kid is running for a while the kid who stands next normally just lets them tag him or her. It’s an interesting game and kids love it.
this is a old game,it is called Red Rover, the kids make two lines, hold hands and have one person on each line take turns calling like this: Red Rover Red Rover send (Name) on over, that person runs and tries to break the hands of any of the other lineup that they think they can break, if they do they can add those two people to their line, this goes on until they get the most people or run out of time..
