Grid of eight numbered squares, each roughly 1ft (30cm) across.

HOW TO PLAY
1

Draw a hopscotch grid of numbered squares on the ground with chalk.

2

The first player tosses their marker onto square one, then hops through the grid on one foot, skipping that square.

3

The player must hop over the marker's square without touching a line or losing balance.

4

On the return hop, the player bends down mid-hop to scoop up their marker before hopping out.

5

Players take turns advancing their marker to the next numbered square each round, and whoever finishes the full grid first wins.
