Pickle on Scooters
Setup and Equipment:
  • Students move on their scooters from one mat to another and try not to get tagged.
  • If they are tagged, they may pick up their scooters or roll to the pickle jar (center circle in the gym).
  • Free Rollbacks: (Note:In the regular Pickle Tag game students get free walkbacks)
  • Players get out of the pickle jar when another player - comes to the center and these two students hook elbows back to back (with one partner moving forward and the other backwards until they reach a mat).
  • Play continues for 1-2 minutes or the length of a song depending on the grade level
  • New "its" are picked when transition music (i.e. Jeopardy Theme) is played.
  • Those old "its" hand their taggers to someone sitting on their scooter on the line designated as the "new it" line
  • The old "its" now start the game at the mat in front of the opposing wall.
  • Play continues until all players complete their turns as "its".
