How to play
Game variations
Change the way of moving by using one, two, three or four body parts touching the floor.
Move around with an object resting on a chosen body part e.g., a teddy bear on top of your head. If it falls off, you must go back to the starting circle before turning an object over.
Start with all the objects the right way up. One player moves and turns them upside down whilst the second player must get around by crawling and try to tag the first player five times before they can turn all the items upside down. Play for two minutes and switch roles.
As above, but instead of tagging, the second player must throw a soft ball or rolled up socks at the player turning objects upside down from within the starting circle. The player turning objects upside down can start anywhere in the playing space. Their score is how many objects are turned upside down before getting hit.
