44) Amoeba

Supplies
* rope/chalk/rocks/etc to mark off two lines

How to Play
Designate a specific area as the game area. Draw a line, or use rocks, etc as landmarks, on either side of this area. Have everyone form a line, standing side-by-side on one side behind one of these lines. Pick one person to be the amoeba; this person should stand half-way between the two lines. At the facilitator's command, the group must run to the other side. The amoeba should try to tag as many players as possible. When someone is tagged, he/she holds hands with the amoeba, becoming part of it and help to tag the runners. No one may let go, but they may use any part of their bodies to try and tag the runners. When the runners get to the other side, they are safe, and wait for the facilitator's command to run back. This continues until everyone has become part of the amoeba.
