Question

What is Red Rover?

Community Answer

Red Rover is a game where you split people up into two groups, and each group stands in a line holding hands. One group yells, "Red Rover, Red Rover send [insert name of a person] on over." Then the person who was called runs between two people, and if they break the bond of their hands, they go back to their group. If they cannot break the bond, they join this group.

There is no blue light in the regular version of this game. However, you can make adjustments. For example, for a blue light, you could add in skipping or leaping.

What do you do when the cop yells "yellow light"?

Just like in real life, the yellow light is mainly just a warning that the traffic light is about to turn red, signalling to cars (or in this case, players) that it's time to start slowing down.
