How to play the fun classic kids game of Red Light Green
Light. All you need to play the game is a group of friends and a large play
area.
Red Light Green Light is played where one person is "it" or
the Stop Light and the other players try to make it to them without getting
caught moving.
The Stoplight will stand at one end of the game area at least 20
feet from the other players. All the other players line up facing the
stoplight.
On a green light the players can move towards the stoplight,
but on a red light the players must stop and not get caught moving.
To begin the stoplight will face away from the other players and say
"green light". The players will move carefully toward the stoplight.
At
any time the stoplight can yell "Red Light!" and quickly turn around to face
the players. All players must stop moving. If any are caught moving the
stoplight will call them out and they are out of the game.
Then the stoplight says "green light!" and turns away from the players
again. The first player to touch the stoplight without getting caught moving
wins and they are the new stoplight. If there are no players that reach the
stoplight then the stoplight can choose to be the stoplight again or pick
another players to take their place.
