  Avoid the Octopus list of games 
Sent in by: Tanya S. of Austin, TX

Don't let the hungry octopus get you.

First, pick one person to be the octopus. Then, draw two lines that are at least 20 feet apart.

The other players, the fish, then line up on either line.

When the octopus shouts "hungry," everyone tries to cross to the other side while the octopus tries to tag them.

When a fish is tagged, he becomes a tentacle and has to hold hands with the octopus, working with him to try to tag the other fish.

The last fish left wins!
