BASE

This might be the funnest way to kick your own butt!

Game: Base
Equipment needed: Dark night, playground, spot light, group of people
Be prepared to: Sprint, Squat, Climb, Jump, Slide, Duck, Run, Fall, Hang, and LAUGH!

How to Play:
The person who is IT stands at base and makes up an obstacle course. For example... Climb up the blue slide, go across the monkey bars, crawl under the picnic table, run around the pine tree, slide down the twisty red slide and touch base.
The count with their eyes closed and when they open their eyes they try to call people out. There are so many shadows that it makes it really interesting. The first person to make it to base without getting called out wins.

Side Effects: Gasping for Air
Side Effects the next day: Sore Muscles, Mysterious Bruises
Side Effects the day after that: Inability to walk up and down stairs because your thighs are burning and your calves are giving out on you.

Part of the Gang
Giving out the first obstacle course

This is such a fun game to play and an awesome workout. It is fun for all ages. One of the funnest things is to watch everyone play if you have been called out. All you can see is a dark playground. As soon as the caller begins to count people come out of the shadows and run like crazy before disappearing. It is hilarious. If you live nearby and want to join in next time let me know and I will give you a call.
