Hot Potato Game
Hot Potato game is one of the fun child party games, birthday party games and teamwork games for kids.
6 or more players
Ages: 4 and up
Need small potato or table tennis ball
Have the kids sit in circle formation on the floor. One player will be in the center with the potato (or ball).
At, "ready, set, go!", the player in the center closes his eyes and tosses the potato to another player. That player than tosses it to another player.
Play continues with each player tossing it to another player as soon as they catch it.
At any time, the player in the middle can call out "hot!" and play stops.
The player who has the potato is out of the game. If the potato is in the air, the player who threw it is out.
Play continues with the player in the center (eyes closed) tossing it again to another player.
If a player doesn't catch it, someone needs to get it and continue tossing it.
The winner is the last remaining player (the center player doesn't count!).
He then goes in the middle for the next game if one is being played.
This is a fun gym game for younger kids at school. Teachers can use a table tennis ball to make it easier for the kids to catch and pass around.
For school games, you can have the kids pass the table tennis ball to the child on their left.
Rhat way the ball isn't being thrown around the room!
