Description

A Game of tag with a twist. Idea from Pink Shirt Day resource

Resources

Space to run around.

before playing, you may like to go over:

What is a compliment? Saying nice things.
What sorts of things could we compliment? To help with the activity, list a mix of answers on the board (E.g. attitude, being good at something, being funny / friendly / kind, trying hard etc).
What's the difference between a 'deep' compliment and a 'surface' compliment? A surface compliment is something anyone could notice about the person (e.g. "You have nice hair."). A deep compliment is something you genuinely admire about the person, and could only notice if you knew them well (e.g. "I love in kapa haka that you have lots of energy and always give it your all.")
What does it take to give a deep compliment? Something that makes that person feel special and when you say it you're 'being real' or authentic.
How should we receive a kind compliment? Feel good! Say thank you!

Instructions

To play the game:

Start by nominating 1-2 people to be ‘in’.
When the person who's in tags someone, they shout "FREEZE" and everyone stops to hear the compliment.
Once the compliment is given the recipient can say "Thanks!" and give a high five, which means everyone can start moving again.

If needed: Say players cannot be tagged for three seconds after the high five, to allow some time to get away.

You could change the tagger to the person receiving the compliment so everyone gets a turn
