Instructions
One child is “it”. This person is known as the “Amoeba” and they attempt to tag another child. When tagged by the Amoeba the 2 join hands and continue to chase. Each child who is caught by the Amoeba joins hands and the line of children continues to chase and tag. Only the children at each end of the line can tag free players. Continue until all children are caught.
Variation
If the Amoeba becomes too unwieldy, the teacher may suggest splitting the Amoeba in half and both halves then work together to trap and tag free children.
