Mark 3 lines 10 meters apart like the diagram. Divide your children into two equal teams. Each team should stand along side the centre line about two yards apart and all facing forwards. Name one team Spiders (the ‘S’ in the diagram above) and one team Bugs (the ‘B’s). When you call ‘Spiders’! or ‘Bugs’! that team has to sprint for the end line nearest them. The other team tries to tag them. Anyone who is tagged joins the other team. Continue until there are only a couple of children left who haven’t been tagged. Don’t carry on until they are all exhausted!).
