Hopscotch or
Jumpscotch game design
Hopscotch designs and
layout ideas can vary as much as the children taking part. Supply
a selection of coloured chalks - make
your own, and support children's ideas as they mark out sections
they want to form a hopping and jumping floor game.

Giant dice help the youngest children play hopscotch
using two foot/both feet jumps or steps as alternatives to the developing
skill of independant hopping..
Chunky chalk assists palmar and pincer grasp,
grip and ease of mark making.
Other game markers include bean bags, tied socks filled with
sand, pebbles..
Celebrate!
Support and encourage children's participation by printing award
stars and positioning them on the furthest hopscotch landing. Pick up
and return back with the smiling congratulations :)
