Thankfulness Tag
It's all in the name . . . and it's a silly game
ADDED November 17, 2009
We like to play tag and we also like thankfulness, so we put the two together and "Thankfulness Tag" came out the other end. Here is how you play.
A group of players (two or more) decide who is going to be 'it.' Then 'it' chases the other players to 'tag' them with a gentle touch of the hand. When a 'tag' takes place, the tagged player is now 'it' and the game continues.
Players can be "safe" from being tagged, however, if they say out loud something for which they are thankful. For example, parents, pet, or pasta.
Unfortunately, thankfulness can only save you three times. You see, when you are tagged after blurting out something for which you are thankful, you don't become 'it', but you must hold your hand in place where you were tagged on your body. The second time you are tagged, you must hold your other hand where you were tagged the second time while still holding your first hand in place. The third time you are tagged, you are 'it.'
This game is a lot of fun for parents and kids alike. I like to hear what kids are thankful for, and everybody looks very silly running around with their hands in odd places. Have fun and let us know in the comments section the silliest thing that your kids are thankful for!
