Be the Marco and tag the Polo! Credit: Corbis
What you need: You need a swimming pool. How to play: Designate one player as "it." Have all players get into the pool. "It" must close his eyes and try to tag other players. The rules: "It" ..."It" will call out "Marco," and the other players must call back "Polo" so that "it" will have some idea where players are. If "it" tags another player, that player becomes the new "it." Players can get out of the pool during the game, but if "it" calls out "Fish out of water," then any players out of the pool are eligible to be chosen to be the new "it" by "it." Got it?
