  • 4 sports cones 
  • Timer  

Before the meeting: 

  1. Identify a safe area free of obstacles to play freeze tag.  Marke the area off with a sports cone at each corner of the play area.  A recommended space is 60’ x 60’, adjust the size based on the number of Cub Scouts in your den. 
  2. Become familiar with the rules to freeze tag. 

During the meeting: 

  1. Gather the Cub Scouts and adult partners and share with them that part of being healthy is staying active and moving around. This helps your muscles, including your heart, and it is also good for your brain.   
  2. Inform the den they are going to play freeze tag.  Demonstrate that when playing tag only a light tag from the waist up is allowed.  If you hit someone or tackle someone or roughhouse you will be removed from the remainder of the round and have to sit out the next round.  
  3. Explain the rules to freeze tag. Pick two Cub Scouts to be “It”.  When the game starts, the “it” Cub Scouts chase the other Cub Scouts who are not “it”.  The Cub Scouts who are “it” have 3 minutes to work together and try to tag and freeze the other Cub Scouts. When the player who is “it” tags another player, they tap them and say “FREEZE!”  The Cub Scouts who are not “it” need to run, dodge, and hide from the players who are “it”. They also unfreeze other participants who have been frozen by tapping them and saying “UNFREEZE!”  The game is won either by the Cub Scouts who are “it” when they have frozen all other players, or it is won by the “not it” Cub Scouts when 3 minutes have run out and at least 1 player is still unfrozen. 
  4. Have Cub Scouts play freeze tag for at least 20 minutes.
