Land Invasion
Land Invasion is an outside
game where the goal is to invade land from the other players. There can be 3-5
players in this game. The playing time is decided in the beginning of the game
(for example, 20 minutes).
Rules of the game
1.Draw a playing area (large
circle) and divide it into as many sections as there are players in the game.
Each player marks his/her area with initials or with his/her name.
2. Find a small stick to play
the game with.
3. At the start of the game,
each player stands in his/her land.
4. Decide who starts the game.
The starter throws the stick to any of the opposing lands.
5. The player who owns that
land makes five X-jumps while the other players run as far as possible.
6. After finishing the
X-jumps, the player yells "Stop!" and the others stop and freeze.
7. The player asks the others
"How many steps?" and they answer any number bigger than two.
8. The player runs once around
the playing area and then takes as many giant steps towards the other players
as they earlier said. After taking there steps, the player always takes two
extra steps and settles down on his/her supporting leg.
9. The player throws the stick
towards the other players (no higher than the waist) and
-> if it is a hit, he/she
can invade land from that player
-> if it is a miss, the
game continues according to steps 3-9.
How to invade land?

your own land and reach as far over the land under invasion as possible. Invade
land for you by drawing a line. Be aware that while invading, your both feet
must stay on your border lines the whole time.

Stealing the
Flag
Stealing the Flag is a
tactical game of two teams. The goal of the game is to steal the flag/flags of
the opposing team and bring it/them to your own area.
Rules of the game
- 6 to 9 players per team
- a large field divided in two
as a playing area (draw a border in the center of the field)
- home base at each end of the
field, where teams keep their flag/flags (draw a large circle to represent the
home base)
- jail at each end of the
field, where teams keep prisoners i.e. players of the opposing team that are
caught during the game (draw a semi circle at the corner of each end of the
field)
1. Start of the game
Both teams start from their
side of the game area. One player can be chosen as a guardian (G) of the
flag/flags. The guardian is not allowed to stand inside the home base. Teams
can also decide that there are no guardians, just regular players. This usually
speeds up the game.
2. Running and chasing
Players start crossing the
central border between the teams and try to run towards the opposing home base
in order to steal the flag. At the same time, players chase the opposing team's
players.
-> When the player is
caught, he/she goes to jail.
-> When the player steals
the flag from the opposing team's home base, he/she needs to bring it over the
central border to his/her own area.
3. Freeing from jail
There can be just two players
in the jail at the same time. As soon as a third person is caught and sent to
jail, the first one there is released. The released person has to run to
his/her own side of the field first, before he/she is allowed to start stealing
the flag again.
4. Winning the game
The first team to steal the
opposing team's flag and bring it over the central border wins the game. If
there are more than one flag in the game, all flags need to be stolen and
brought over the border.
