Puss, puss PDF Print E-mail

Puss, puss needs a grid and is easiest to play on a playground laid down in large concrete squares, rapidly becoming a thing of the past. Otherwise, a tarmac surface will do as long as someone has a piece of chalk!

The squares need to be large, preferably around 3 yards/metres or more; the children stand at the corners of the squares (more than five players means more than one square, but they need to be connecting squares) with the child who is "It" running free.

The children have to change places along the lines, signalling "puss, puss" when they are ready to do so, and "It" has to try to get on one of the vacated corners, the displaced child then taking over as "It."
