set uP: Hip Hopscotch can be set up in many, many ways! It’s  
up to you to decide what specific Pads to put down, and in what  
order you like.e Hop Pads can be placed on concrete, carpet,  
grass, hard floors…anyplace that’s got a level surface and is roomy  
enough to jump freely. Here are a few example layouts, just to get  
you going:

goAl: Hop ‘til you drop!  
PlAy: Take turns. On your turn, jump onto the Hop Pads in  
numerical order. If there’s just one Pad of a number, you must land  
on it with only one foot. If there are two Pads of the same number,  
you must land with both feet at the same time, having one foot on  
each Pad. If Pads are sideways or upside-down, you must land with  
your foot (or feet) matching the direction of the number on the  
Pad. Hop all the way from number 1 to number 10, and then spin  
around and hop the course in reverse, from 10 back down to 1.  
Double HoP PAD: You can assign special rules to this Hop  
Pad, which you must do when you land on it. It can be placed  
anywhere in your layout. Some ideas are: spin around, touch the  
ground, shout something, sing something, clap, jump up and  
click your heels together, kick and clap your hands under your leg,  
yodel, say the alphabet, spell your name – jumping once for each  
letter, do the splits… anything you can think of… or make up a  
combination of moves. You must touch this Double Hop Pad with  
both feet simultaneously at least once.  
rounD HoP PAD: Like the Double Hop Pad, you can assign  
your own special rules to this Round Hop Pad, but you may only  
touch it with one foot or one hand.

Winning: Hip Hopscotch is not about winning – it’s about  
jumping around and having hip-hoppin’ fun! Everybody wins!  
gAme iDeAs:  
• On-Off-On-Off  
Choose any layout you like. As you go, hop on one Pad as usual,  
then land with both feet straddling the Pad before you hop to  
the next Pad, and so-on. It’s harder than you think!  
• BlindScotch  
Place all the Pads touching each other in a square formation.  
Place the Double Hop Pad in the center. Everybody take a good  
look at where the Pads are in relation to the Double Hop Pad.  
Now blindfold one player, spin him or her around three times,  
and stand them on the double Hop Pad. Give commands to the  
blindfolded player where to hop to land on each numbered Pad,  
in order.

• CircleScotch  
Place the Hop Pads in a circular layout with about one foot  
between each Pad. Players each start on a Pad, evenly spaced from  
the other players. On “1-2-3-Go!,” everybody hop to the next Pad  
in a clockwise direction, and keep hopping in that direction, try-  
ing to catch up to the player in front of you. If you tag somebody  
from behind, the tagged player is out. Keep hopping and tagging  
until there’s only one player left. If that’s you, you win! You can  
play this game hopping on one foot, or jumping on both feet…  
play it both ways!  
• Hop ‘til ya Drop  
Place the Hop Pads in a circle with about two feet of space  
between them. On “1-2-3-Hop!,” everybody hop (on one foot)  
at the same time to the next Pad in a clockwise direction. Keep  
saying, “1-2-3-Hop!” and hopping together. Anybody who misses  
the next Hop Pad, or even so much as touches their other foot to  
the ground, is out. If you’re the last one still hopping, you win!

• Leap Pads  
Scatter the Hop Pads randomly around the floor with about a  
foot or so of space between them. Start on Pad #1. On one foot,  
hop to #2, and so-on, until you have hopped all the Pads, or until  
you can’t hop far enough to make it to another Pad.  
Two-legged Hopscotch  
Pick a partner. Choose any Hop Pad layout you want. Partners  
stand before Pad #1, both facing forward, and hold both of each  
others’ hands: right hand to right hand and left to left. Now each  
player stands on the foot nearest their partner, and lifts the other  
foot. Hop through the layout together, with each of you only on  
one foot. Compete with other players to see which teams can go  
the farthest and keep from making mistakes.

• Tag-team Relay Race  
Divide into two teams. Set up two identical Hop Pad layouts,  
side-by-side. Both teams line up behind the start of each layout.  
On “1-2-3-Go!the first player from each team hops the layout  
forward and then back. When they complete the layout, they  
tag the next member of their team who must then hop the layout  
forward and back.e first team to have all of its members  
complete the layout wins.  
• Rhyme Hop  
Choose any Hop Pad layout you want. Assign a word to each  
numbered Pad that rhymes with its number, like one: sun; two:  
glue, and so-on. Hop the layout and say the appropriate word and  
NOT the number each time you land on a Pad. See how fast you  
can go, and watch your friends to see if they make mistakes. Once  
everybody has hopped the layout, add another rhyming word  
to each number, like one: sun, fun; two: glue, who… and so-on.  
See how far you can get!

VAriAtions:  
Hip Hop Hoppy Taw: If you want, you can play Hip Hop  
Hopscotch with a “Hoppy Taw.What’s a Hoppy Taw? Well,  
it’s something you find, like a coin, a stone, or a toy that won’t  
bounce. A beanbag or a hacky sack works really well. On your  
turn, stand behind Pad #1 and toss your Hoppy Taw onto  
one of the Pads. Wherever it lands, you have to skip over that  
particular Pad as you go.  
Hip Hop Criss-Cross: Two players start hopping at the same  
time from opposite ends of the Hip Hopscotch Pad layout, and  
criss-cross each other somewhere in the middle.  
Hip Hop High Five: Two players start hopping at the same  
time from opposite ends of the Hop Pad layout, and high-five  
each other somewhere in the middle, then both turn around  
and go back the direction from which they came.  
Hop Hip Hopscotch: Go through the layout, but when you get to  
the end, don’t turn around… come back from 10 to 1 backwards!  
Hoptime: Using a stopwatch or a clock with a second hand,  
keep track and compare how long it takes each player to hop  
the same pattern.  
Hop to the Beat: Put on some Hip Hop or other lively music  
and jump to the groove.  
e combinations and variations are limitless, and so is the fun!  
Hop to it!
