The Basics:
1. Choose a "It": One person starts as "It".
2. Chase and Tag: "It" chases the other players, trying to touch them.
3. Tagged!: When "It" touches someone, that person becomes the new "It".
4. Repeat: The new "It" then chases the other players, and the game continues.
Variations:
* Variations of "It":
* Freeze Tag: Instead of becoming "It", tagged players freeze in place. "It" can then tag others, and frozen players are unfrozen by being tagged.
* Ghost Tag: "It" is invisible, only becoming visible when they tag someone.
* Red Rover: Two teams line up facing each other, with a player calling out a name on the opposing team. That player then tries to run through the line of the other team. If they get through, they bring someone back with them. If they get stopped, they become "It".
* Rules: You can make up your own rules, like setting a boundary where players can't go, or adding obstacles to the game.
Tips for Playing Tag:
* Be Safe: Play in a safe area with no obstacles.
* Have Fun: The main goal is to have fun, so laugh and enjoy the game!
* Be a Good Sport: Don't be a sore loser if you get tagged.
