Rabbit in the cabbage(fast running and catching game)

Form of organisation: entire group

Materials: none

 

Description of the game:
A hunter and a rabbit are determined from within the group. The rest of the group is distributed in the field and crouches down. The hunter is now trying to catch the rabbit. The rabbit may escape by crouching down next to a cabbage. The cabbage than gets up and becomes a hunter and the hunter becomes a rabbit who now has to run himself. If a hunter catches a rabbit before crouching down, they switch roles.
Variant:The players lie on their stomach. The players lie on their stomach in pairs next to each other. If a rabbit lies down next to a player, the player on the other side must get up. For a large number of participants, two or three hunter-rabbit pairs may run at the same time.
