Cape catches

Goal:

Try to grab other players’ capes while protecting your own!

Players:

• 6 or more kids

• Best for outdoors or a large hall

  
  

Supplies Needed:

• 1 small “cape” for each player (Cut up the ribbon for this)

• tuck the cape into the back of their waistband or shirt.

• 
  

How to Play:

1. Set Up the Capes

   Each player tucks their cape into the back of their pants/skirt or waistband — it must be clearly visible and easy to grab.

2. Start the Game

3. On “GO!”, players run around trying to catch (pull out) other players’ capes while protecting their own.

4. Out = Cape Caught

5. If your cape is pulled, you're out and must sit to the side — OR — run to a “power-up station” to complete a challenge (e.g. 5 star jumps) and return.

6. Last Hero Standing Wins!

7. The game continues until one player is left with a cape.

Variations:

• Team Mode: Work in pairs and protect each other’s capes.

• Timed Rounds: After 2–3 mins, stop and count who has the most capes collected.

•
