Answer 6

Train-o-tug of war!

In this classic (african style) game a group of kids are asked a simple question individually and have to choose between 2 options (A or B). Depending on the answer the kid has to line behind  A or B, eventually as they pile behind B or A they form a tug of war team. It's fun because in a kids group there are those who want to be in the same side all the time so they have to guess their favorite friend's answer (A or B) to join them.

Further:

2 kids = head of the train move far away from the others and in low tones, whisper decide on one question to ask all the kids individually. E.g I have 2 apples, 1 green and 1 red which one do you want? (only 2 options strictly). Green is one train head and red is the other head or as relevant.

When done the train heads signal to others they are ready. All the other kids hold hands and move (walking) like a train all over the park and have to pass between the train heads who will trap last kid (train heads will make a tunnel with their hands high in the air so that the other kids pass between them, like train entering tunnel). The rest of the kids carry on walking hand to hand around the park singing ryhmes and imitating train sounds.

The last kid, now between the train heads is  asked the agreed question without clues so that they make their own choice. Once choice made he falls behind the appropriate train head. The train comes choo-choo-choo through the heads once more and the process is repeated asking each child the secret question until all have taken either one of the side and the tug of war begins

Tip- just make sure the heads whisper the question so that the train body does not get a clue and pick sides in advance and spoil the surprise. You can repeat with new train heads. Please note that this was not a contact (rough) game during our time, it used to soft no injuries.

Good luck

Answer 7

Red Light Green Light is so fun... and it teaches them to listen for direction!! Loved this game and so do my children.

Just to add something.... I think that these simple games listed here by everyone would be a lot of fun.... I think they may seem boring to you. Get to creative and complicated, the 6 year olds are going to get confused and not want to do it.  Just a thought. Stay simple, or just ask the kids what their favorite games are.
