Theatre Education: A Resource of Practical and Project-Based Warm-ups/Theatre Games for K-12

Blob Tag
 
Where we learned it: Creative Drama at NU
Ages: 2nd grade and up 
Materials: None

Process:

1. Everyone needs to spread out in the room and the instructor chooses the blob.
2. The students begin to move about the space trying to avoid the blob.
3. As the blob tags the students, they latch arms and form a larger blob to try to catch the rest of the students.
4. Eventually everyone is part of the blob.

Variations:

1. The blob could think of new ways to catch the other students (e.g., only tag with knees or elbows).
