Let your children pretend to be groundhogs popping out of their hole by providing them with boxes that they can pop out of. Have your children line up in a row with their legs spread apart. Your children can then take turns crawling under their legs pretending to be a groundhog in a tunnel.

  Have your children run around and try to step on each other's shadows.
• Shadow Tag
  Submitted by Carmen
  Play just like regular tag except the students must tag each other's shadows.

Hang a sheet up in the middle of your room. Turn out all the lights. Remove several children and have one of them stand in front of a flashlight, or overhead projector. Have the other children guess whose shadow is on the sheet. Let your children trace each others shadow's with sidewalk chalk.
