Valentine Hug Tag

Setup and Equipment:

• Four soft red balls for the "cupid - its"
• Practice the hug: Lean forward with two soft taps
• Practice the Macho Hug: Do a thumb handshake with two hand taps on the other person's back
• Practice becoming a "heart" by lifting arms (elbows up) above their heads and pointing their hands downwards to the top of their head.
• When a person is tagged they stand frozen in this position.

Rules:

• The "cupid - its" attempt to tag players by throwing or tagging them with the red ball
• If a player is tagged, they stand frozen in the "heart" position
• A heart is unfrozen and the player returns to the game when another player gives them a hug - or a "macho hug"
• Continue the game by having the "old its" pick "new its"until turns are completed by each student.
