Cutie Pie made up this outdoor chalk game, so I cannot take credit for it at all!
First, make sure you have several different colors of chalk.
Next, draw a few shapes with each color of chalk.
Finally, call out a color and shape and watch the kiddos run to find the correct place to stand!
We made this a little more difficult once or twice by adding a letter or number inside the shape!
We made this more simple by drawing one shape in different colors, calling out the color to run to and by drawing different shapes in the same color, calling out the shape to run to. These were perfect revisions to this game to get Sweet Pea interested. But we also made all one shape and put in different numbers (like in the pic above) or different letters!
Simple, but so fun, and especially neat because Cutie Pie came up with it on his own!
I’m planning on sharing more chalk fun we’ve been up to on Tuesdays for a few more weeks, so come back! For other fun play ideas check out We Play at Childhood 101!

Too fun! I like anything that is active and outside. joyce 🙂
