xxXSleepy_NinjaXxx Sagebomb Virtually always a week. I.e When I worked in WI, OH, CA and on the ships mainly its groups of kids for a week. Usually a lot more than 30 kids, as well. Then I don't blame you for not remembering all the kids names. In a week, I would probably get 5 down. sweatdrop
XD yeah its pretty high turnover (hense my being serious when I say I have worked with thousands of kids). The largest group game I have ran had ~110 kids, I was a massive field game of octopus ^_^

Yeah it was pretty cool, has its challenges, but what job dosent aye?
Octopus Game Object of the Game: Stay away from the octopus and the seaweed.
First: Choose who will be “it” for the game. Mark two lines on each end of a large play area or field. The octopus will stand in the middle of the two lines.
Play: The octopus calls out “ Come _____ in my ocean.” (The blank is filled in by what the players must do as they are crossing the ocean. Hop, twirl, swim, run, run backwards, etc.) Then the players must follow the command and try and make it to the other side of the ocean without being tagged by the octopus. Any player that is tagged becomes seaweed and has to stand in the spot where they were tagged. In the next round both the octopus and the seaweed try and tag players as they go by.
Game Variations:
- Instead of becoming seaweed the tagged children hold hands with the octopus and help tag players.
- The tagged players can catch players as they run by so the octopus can come by and tag them.

I'm assuming all the kids enjoy it. What are the kids ages?

That game works best with mainly 6th graders give or take a couple years. But really most games can be modified so that most ages can enjoy it. (like giving teen spins on kids games is fun).
But Mainly I have worked with kids between 8 and 18. with the main main group around 5th and 6th grade
