Things You'll Need:
- Sidewalk Chalk
- Pebble
-
Step 1
Gather 2 to 10 players for the game of hopscotch.
-
Step 2
Choose a section of pavement or sidewalk that is approximately 4-feet wide and 10-feet long. Make sure it is relatively flat and smooth.
-
Step 3
Draw three rectangles that are connected and number with 1 through 3.
-
Step 4
Sketch a large square touching the three rectangles and fill the box with a large X. Number the four sections with numbers 4 through 7. The 4 should touch the rectangle with the 7 on top. The 5 and 6 are to the left and right, respectively.
-
Step 5
Add two more rectangles to the top of the square. Number the first square with number 8. Divide the second square and number with 9 and 10, from left to right.
-
Step 6
Include a half circle dome on the top of the grid which is the "out." It remains blank.
-
Step 7
Throw the first pebble to the number 1 space. The first player, who threw the pebble, hops on one foot to the 1, leans over on one foot to pick up the pebble and then hops back.
-
Step 8
Toss the pebble to number 2 and hop onto both spaces, scoop up the pebble and return. Repeat this process through the rest of the numbers until a foul is committed. A foul include throwing the pebble to the wrong number, hopping on a line or letting your foot drop.
-
Step 9
Switch to the next player once a foul is committed. The new player needs to start at 1 and continue on. Rotate play through all the players, starting at 1 at every new turn and continuing on through 10.
-
Step 10
Win the game by throwing 1 through 10, hopping on one foot through the grid, reaching out, where you hop on two feet and then returning through the grid to home.
