Instructions

  1. How to Play Fire in the Forest

    • 1

      Have all the participants line up with their backs along one wall of the gym.

    • 2

      The person in the center of the gym yells either "Fire" or "Go." All the participants must run to the opposite side of the gym and the person in the center must run and tag people as they try to cross. Those who have been tagged must now stay in one place (the spot where they were tagged) as they are now "Trees."

    • 3

      The person in the center yells "Fire" or "Go" once again and the participants must run back to the other side. The "Trees" may tag anyone who runs by, as long as they don't move their feet to tag a person. Anyone who is tagged is a tree.

    • 4

      Repeat until only one participant is left. This is the winner, and for the next game, he will become the "It" person in the center of the gym.
