Step-by-Step Instructions
This balancing tag game combines agility, coordination and laughter in a uniquely challenging way. Deportment Tag cleverly transforms a simple game of tag by adding the tricky element of balancing objects while running. By requiring players to maintain their composure while attempting to tag others, this unusual activity creates countless moments of fun as participants dodge, weave and try to keep their balance.
Deportment Tag – Balancing Tag Game
- Distribute a small object, such as an eraser or bean bag toy, to each person in your group.
- Ask each person to balance the object on their head.
- When ready, invite everyone to play a quick game of tag, ie each individual aims to tag as many people as possible, while at the same time, avoid being tagged.
- A player is eliminated when they are tagged by another person provided that the tagger is successfully balancing an object on their head.
- If a person’s object falls, or they touch their object to prevent it from falling, they are eliminated.
- Game continues until one person remains.
