STEAL THE BACON
TYPE: Active
Play in any open space
A handkerchief is needed
Two teams line up on opposite ends of the room, and each player from both teams has a number. (See diagram) A handkerchief is placed in the middle. When the leader calls out a number, that player (from each team) must run and try to "steal" the handkerchief and return with it to his team without being tagged. If he is not tagged, he scores two points. If he is tagged, the tagger scores one point. The team with the most points wins.
Variation: The leader may call two or three numbers or even call "scramble" in which case everyone tries to steal the “bacon.”
