Freeze tag is a variation of the basic game of tag except that the chaser has to catch everyone in the game. Children all over the world play it. Freeze tag requires no balls or equipment, just a bunch of friends and a place to run. Several variations have been made to the game through the years, but the basic premise remains the same.
Get a group of friends together; the more kids, the more fun. You should have at least five.
2
Decide who is "it." Usually "it" is the person who is the last to say, "not it."
3
Chase your friends if you are "it" until you tag them. Once a friend has been touched and tagged, that person must stop running and remain in the position they were in when they were tagged; in other words they have to "freeze."
4
Unfreeze a frozen friend if you are not "it" by touching them as you run by. Another variation of this game is that you must crawl through the frozen friend's legs to unfreeze them.
5
Continue the game until everyone is frozen. The last person to be tagged becomes "it."
6
Keep playing until the majority of your friends collapse in exhaustion or they just become too bored to continue.
Tips & Warnings
Some children use a variation with what is called "electricity." This is when there are two or more people frozen within touching distance. They can touch one another to become unfrozen but they must each say "electricity" first.
