Wall to Wall

Run, run as quick as you can…while giggling!

Environment and Set Up

• Find a safe space to run across from wall to wall or wall to fence (non slip).
• 1 person is in charge of the calls.
• All the other people line up against the wall.

Rules

• The person in charge of the calls counts down from 10 then yells, “Go!”
• The children run from one wall and stop at the other.
• While they are running, call out how you would like them to run (e.g. run on tippy toes!)
• Repeat!
• Keep challenging with different ways to run: With knees high! With arms high or low! Run backwards! Jump all the way! Run like certain animals!  Whatever you like!

Change it Up!

• You can also change it up by counting up more or down before yelling “Go!” This gives the element of surprise!
• Alternate people in charge of calls to make it fair to all.
