Soccer, basketball, tag, grounders, or my all time favourite game I loved to play besides grounders, cops and robbers =)
Circle games.
Have you played Human knot??
hide and seek.
dodgeball.
tag.
pickle!(:
hit the pinata
Soccer
Kick ball or Tee ball would be a hit. Or maybe even hopscotch if there is a sidewalk.
Jump Rope. Dang, those are the games I used to play!
FutBol !!! aka: soccer
me and my friends went down to mexico and hung out with some kids in an orphanage ages 2-15 we played soccer and had a blast
I can’t tell from your question if you want to keep them off the streets or if you want games to play in the streets! I’ll go with the former.
These are a couple of real oldies!
There’s a game called “gossip”. With the kids around a table or in a vague line. The first one (or maybe the adult) whispers a simple sentence to the second player who whispers it to the next one .. and on to the end of the line. The last player then announces what he/she heard. Compare it to the first statement to see how close it comes. Be ready for it to be WAY off. If you’re in a mentoring position it’s a good game to teach how unreliable gossip is.
We also used to play a game that involved dropping a wooden clothes pin into a quart milk bottle that was placed between the feet. It sounds easier than it is .. but it’s doable.
There’s another called “musical chairs” … you don’t have to have chairs, but if you don’t you’ll have to have designated ‘spots’. Begin with one less spot or chair than players. Everyone walks around a circle that’s made up of the chairs/spots while music is played. When the music stops everyone scrambles for a chair/spot. Whoever doesn’t get a place is out of the game and another chair/spot is removed. This goes on until there is one chair and two people. Who ever is the last one sitting (or standing on a spot) is the winner.
I was going to write one more, but seems like the games we played just got sillier! It was fun thinking about them!
Best of luck!
