This is a tag game that is co-constructed with the children and uses the experiential learning approach. Skills include dodging which is connected into game play through defensive and offensive skills required to run and stop quickly while remaining balanced and to change direction quickly through dodging, evading and faking. Chasing and being chased is connected to offense and defense required to successfully play games, thus introducing children to a basic concept of games

When teams are introduced into the game, groups work together and participate and contribute to strategies and tactics in order to make their team successful. The children can be given multiple opportunities to reflect on their plans, make changes through the decision making process to better the opportunity for their team to win.
