Red White and Blue Tag

Summary: Red White and Blue Tag is a Fourth of July twist on the familiar game of tag.

Ages: From 5 to 12

Recommended Number of Players:
Between 6 and 30

Equipment:
Red, White and Blue chips - a few more than one chip for each player

Set Up:
Pass out one chip per player before play begins

How to Play:
Two kids are designated to be "It." Everyone else holds a colored chip in their fists (red, white, or blue). The "Its" chase the others and try to tag them.

The game can resume after 2 more kids are designated "It".
