Line three rows of three chairs like a tic tac toe board. Make teams out of nine or more kids. Give them each numbers starting at one and so on, so that each team has one of each number. Have a team on each side of the chairs. Have some one or yourself call out a number. The two people with that number race to the chairs and take a seat, keep calling numbers until a team lines up three people from their team in a row. The game gets kind of physical at times so be careful. If your indoor area is too small try the game outside!
