- Start by choosing one person to be IT and a "home base"
- To start, this player (IT) gets to kick the can as far as he/she can
- The other players scatter to find hiding places as the can rolls
- IT then chases after the can and brings it back to home base
- When IT opens them, IT starts searching for the other kids
- When IT finds a hider, IT calls out this player's name
- If the hider can kick over the can before IT does, they are safe
- If IT makes it to the can first, the player whose name IT calls out is captured and must wait in the jail (next to the can)
- The player/s in jail are not doomed just yet, another player can risk capture to save them!
Be sure to find a suitable and safe place to play like your street, garden or local park
Remember!
If another player can kick over the can and call out "Home FREE" without getting captured by IT, the jailbirds are free to run and hide from IT again
