How to play? Select the Location: Choose a suitable location for setting up the Hopscotch Play Mat. It can be indoors on a flat surface, such as a living room floor, or outdoors on a paved area like a driveway or sidewalk. If outdoors, use chalk to draw the hopscotch layout if it's not already on the mat. Unroll or Place the Mat: Lay the Hopscotch Play Mat flat on the chosen surface. Ensure that it's secure and won't move around during play. Understand the Layout: Familiarize yourself and the children with the layout of the hopscotch design on the mat. Typically, it consists of a series of numbered squares or sections, with a "home" or "start" square at one end. Select a Player: Decide who will go first. You can use a simple method like rock-paper-scissors or just take turns. Hop and Toss the Marker: The first player stands at the starting square, often marked with "1." They toss a small object (like a stone or beanbag) into square 1 without stepping on it. Hop Through the Course: The player hops through the course, starting with square 1 and moving to square 2, then 3, and so on. They should hop on one foot for single squares and use two feet for squares side by side. Hopscotch Rules: Follow the traditional hopscotch rules: Avoid stepping on the square with the marker. Skip the square with the marker and land on one foot in the next square. Use two feet to jump over squares with two numbers. Maintain balance and coordination while hopping. Retrieve the Marker: After successfully hopping through the course, the player reaches the end (the last square). They then turn around and hop back, retracing their steps, and pick up the marker while standing on one foot. Pass the Turn: The player who successfully completes their turn without making any mistakes passes the turn to the next player. If a player makes a mistake, like stepping on a line or losing balance, their turn is over, and they must try again in the next round. Continue Play: Continue taking turns and progressing through the numbered squares. The goal is to complete the entire course from 1 to the highest number (e.g., 10 or 12) and return to the starting square without making mistakes. Winning the Game: The player who successfully completes the entire course is the winner. They can create additional challenges by adding more rounds or increasing the complexity of the hopping pattern. Clean Up: After playing, roll up the Hopscotch Play Mat for easy storage or leave it in place for more rounds of play. What will I get? A flex mat.
