GAME TIP

Have a little space to move? Change “river” and “bank” to two designated walls in the room to get players moving as long as they are 6 feet apart. When you say, “riverbank,” players can rush to a designated spot in the middle of the two.

PLAY: REP IT OUTEASY: Walk.
MEDIUM: Hop on two feet.

GAME TIP

Only one player? Playing by yourself can be just as fun. See how many claps you can get in before catching the ball. Once you’ve set a personal record, compete against yourself and try and beat it!

CONFLICT-RESOLUTION TIP:

Instruct students to high-five each other after catching the ball.

POPCORNWho: Grades K to 5
Players: 1+
Time: 15+ minutes
Where: Any indoor space
Equipment: One soft ball or item (stuffed animal, hat)

HOW TO PLAY:

Instruct players to form a circle. The facilitator of the game will always begin with the ball.
The facilitator throws the ball in the air, claps once, and then catches the ball.
The ball is then passed around the circle, with each player having a chance to throw the ball in the air and clap once before catching the ball. Everyone should only get one turn per round. If the ball is dropped, everyone will do jumping jacks.
Once everyone had a turn, whoever successfully caught the ball after one clap can try two claps in the next round. Everyone else will try one clap again.
The player who gets the most claps before catching the ball at the end of the game is the winner.
