Development of the activity

We make two groups with the same number of children and they are placed in front of each other at enough distance so that they can run. The educator indicates that the children of one of the groups will run with their arms open to meet the other partner that they have exactly in front of them when he blows a whistle. When they arrive they should give him a strong hug. The other group waits without moving for the arrival of their classmates.

We repeat the game, but the group that received the hugs now has to run to meet their partners and return their hugs.

This activity is good as a farewell for the eve of holiday periods.
