School is a classic game that many people played in their childhood. It is a favorite even among those who did not like school. This game is extremely fun, easy to prepare, and suitable for all family members because it does not require much physical effort. School encourages better coordination of movements, teaches patience and waiting for one’s turn, and develops a positive attitude towards winning and losing. It also helps the youngest to quickly learn to count to eight.
Required: space to draw a school on the floor (concrete), chalk or pebbles.
The goal: to pass all the classes and be the first to finish the game.
Rules: Use chalk to draw eight squares on the floor. The squares should be big enough for Dad’s foot to fit in. Usually, a playpen has eight squares, but if you want to have more or fewer squares, feel free to be creative. Write a number from one to eight in each square.
Each player must stand in front of the school and hit the first grade with a pebble. If they fail (throw it into another grade or outside the school), they lose the right to play. If they throw it into the first square, they have the right to play. The game is played in such a way that the player jumps on one leg from the first to the last square and back, and on the way back, they pick up the pebble in their hand. They must not trespass (stand on the edge of the square).
If he has performed the action correctly, he has the right to throw it on square two and repeat all the above. If he makes a mistake, he loses the right to play and the next player plays, and the game continues when it is his turn again, on the square where he stopped (he does not start from the beginning). The player who completes all eight classes first is the winner.
