GrossMotor Games@home (4+ years)

1. throw a piece of folded paper in target box(you can specify)
2. stand with one hand and keep hands on top of head in namaskaara poster
    Who ever stands for most of the time, they are the winners
3. Tiger and goat
     Kids should form a circle holding their hands,
     goat will be inside the circle and tiger will be outside
     other kids should not allow tiger to enter and  help goat to escape if tiger comes in
4. Tap the shoe
    How do you play this game?

All players stand in a broad circle and try to tap on the shoes of the person standing next to them.
The rule is that they cannot leave their spot while tapping and also cannot touch another person with any other body part.
Once tapped, that player has to leave the circle so eventually we are left with two people, one out of which wins!

5. Fit the line

Trying to teach your child to stand straight in a line? Play this outdoor game and teach you child that. Plus, have fun!

So, how do you play this game?

Using chalk on concrete or with a stick on sand, draw a line of 2 metres in length.
Children have to wait huddled together in one designated corner till the line is drawn and the whistle is blown.
Once the whistle is blown, the children have run and fit themselves on the line—like a queue.
Those who are unable to fit on the line are out.
The line keeps getting shorter after each round and players keep getting eliminated till one of them remains and he/she is the winner.

6. Group into a number
In a large play area, players move around in a circle.
One leader is chosen—ideally an unbiased adult.
As the players move in a circle, the leader suddenly says a number.
The players have to group themselves in that number and all the extras are out.
As the games progresses, more and more players are eliminated and one winner remains.

7.  Rope jumping

8. Dog bone
  keep a ball in the middle, and who ever gets the ball first are the winners

9. Marble game
Draw a small circle on the ground you’ve chosen to play in.
Place the marbles inside the circle, near the centre to form  the pattern ‘X.’
The idea is to shoot these marbles in the centre with a marble in your hand. Shooting is done by flicking the marble using your thumb and knuckles.
The number of marbles in the ‘X’ pattern that move when you throw a marble at them, are yours.
If any of the marbles moves out of the circle, then you lose a point. You have to place a marble back at the centre.
Taking turns, the game continues till there are no more marbles to win.

10. Stand in a circle and other team need to hit people inside the circle with ball, under the knees

11. Tell a story, when a particular predefined word comes (ex: Mother), other people should run and person who told the story should catch them

12. Kings
     Form a close circle and keep everyone's right leg together,
     Say KINGS and step backward 3 times
     Denner should target a person and step/jump 3 time forward and need to touch the feet of
     one team member.
     If touches, that person is out and now he can target other team member.
     If denner couldn't tap that person's feet, they denner should choose any one of the team as denner.
     And continues till one person is left, and they are the winner :-)

13. knock knock
