Sleep Tag

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Sleep Tag activity also includes:

Zombies? No, just sleepwalking taggers. After splitting the gym into two sides, pick two people to be the taggers and two people to be the magic fairies. As taggers tag people on the daytime side, they must "fall asleep" on the nighttime side and count down from 10. Once finished, the magic fairies tag the tagged, allowing the players to go back to the daytime side.
