One person is "it" and closes their eyes. The rest of the kids scatter and aren't allowed to touch the ground-hence, climing on the playground equipment. If the kids want to move to another place and are caught 'on the ground' when the IT person yells MAGIC, they become the 'IT' person. It is a great way to use their "hearing" senses as well as staying active. The IT person can yell MAGIC as often as they would like, the key is to listen for footsteps across the ground. I joined in yesterday and it was great fun. My kids learned a cool game at the park called “magic”. One person is “it” and closes their eyes.
