Fun Games to Play at the Park

At the park there are many different types of games to play, or you could just use the swings and other types of equipment available. I will take you through three of my favorite.

1. The first game that I play at the park is a game called 'Woodchips'. In woodchips there is one person who is it and all the others avoid that one person. The objective of the it person is to tag another person. The person who is it also has to have their eyes closed. You play this game on a park where you can run around on an upper level that is not on the ground. The reason this game is called woodchips is because the lower level or the ground is where the people who are not it should avoid. This is because the person who is it can yell out "Woodchips!" whenever they think somebody is on the lower level or ground. When somebody is caught they are now it. You can also become it by being tagged.

2. Another game to play at the park is of course the old favorite tag. I don't really think I need to explain how tag is played but I will for those who don't know. One person is it and they try to tag others playing. Whoever is tagged is then now it.

3. The last thing I play at the park is just using the equipment provided. Using swings people can try to go as high as they can and then jumping off to see how far they can go. I would not recommend this game for smaller children but for those who can handle it it could be a fun alternative to an old concept.

There are more games to play at the park that you can view on other websites but these were the ones that I played with my friends. I would recommend that you only play woodchips with a larger group on a larger area or a smaller group on a smaller area to keep the flow of people being tagged going.
