Holidays present the perfect opportunity for physical educators to utilize creative TAG (Teaching Active Games) games to offer maximum physical activity opportunities for their students. The TAG ideas in this article offer physical education teachers quick, instant activities that involve very little equipment, time management, or instruction. At the same time, they address the National Standards for Physical Education by allowing children to: practice locomotor skills and movement patterns, accumulate physical activity, and demonstrate personal and social responsibility in physical activity settings.
