It's the way it breaks up that makes it different and more fun. I think there is a safety benefit here, too. In other similar "chain tig" type games, the chain of kids can get long and if a little child is on the end they can get "whiplashed" faster than their feet can carry them, and be pulled over. This game was flagged up as for ages 6-12 and I think even the wee ones couldenjoy this safely. I agree, Courtney. It’s the way it breaks up that makes it different and more fun.

I believe I've used a version of the game before, but I love the idea of the octopus breaking off into two groups! Great game!
