"Shadow Tig"
Allan is 10 years old and tells
us about a game played when aged 8. My school break times: During school
playtimes I mostly play at football. If I am not playing football I like
to play shadow tig with my friends.
My favourite school playground
game: My favourite playground game is shadow tig. How to play: To play
shadow tig it has to be a sunny day. Someone is het (that means they are
the one who does the chasing). The idea of the game is that the person
who is het is going to chase the shadows of all the other players. If they
do manage to stand on someone s shadow then that person becomes het. If
you stand in the shadow of something else e.g. a building, where your shadow
can t be seen then you are safe in den.
What you need: You need the
sun in order to play this game. Special game location, surface or design:
A good place to play is the school playground. There is no special language
associated with this game. (Allan Burgoyne, 10 years old)
