Sharks

Description

Sharks

  • Two children are chosen to be sharks and stand in the middle of the activity area.
  • Other children are divided into small groups and each group is given the name of a fish e.g. tuna, goldfish, salmon.
  • You call out names of fish and those children have to run around the sharks in the middle (who stay at their base).
  • Sharks can give chase only when the activity leader calls out 'sharks!'
  • The shark who catches the most fish can choose to stay as a shark or become a fish.

The other shark joins one of the fish groups and another shark is chosen to start the game again.

Early movers is a collaborative project between Loughborough University, the NCSEM and Loughborough campus nursery. Our work has been supported with Loughborough University Enterprise Funding through the Higher Education Innovation Fund (HEIF).
