Cowgirls, Ninjas, Bears

Divide participants into two teams. Inform them they will be playing a tag game. Explain to participants that the game is like Rock, Paper, and Scissors. In this version, they have Cowgirls, Ninjas, and Bears. Each one has a motion, just like Rock, Paper, and Scissors. Cowgirls shoot guns, Ninjas do a kick, and Bears growl with their arms in the air. Cowgirls beat Bears (shoot bears), Ninjas beat Cowgirls (kick guns out of hand), and Bears beat Ninjas (go over the kick). Each team is instructed to go on the “safe” side of their base and decide which character they will be. The entire team has to be the same character. The teams then meet at the line in the middle. The facilitator counts down and the teams show their character. The team that has the winning character tries to tag the team that has the losing character. The team with the losing character runs to get across the line to their base. Anyone who is tagged goes to the other team. If the teams choose the same character, they have to go back across their base and pick again.
