Fruit Salad
Everyone's a fruit, when yours is called, swap spots before the caller steals one.

The rules
How to play
1
Players stand on markers in a circle, shoes work, with one player in the middle and no spare spot.
2
Go around naming everyone apple, banana or orange.
3
The middle player calls a fruit and everyone with that name must dash to a new spot while the caller grabs one; on 'Fruit salad!' everybody swaps at once.
4
Whoever is left without a spot calls next.
Keep it fair
No swapping with the player right beside you, it's the one rule that keeps everyone running instead of shuffling.

What you need
Just: a marker per player (shoes or jumpers work)
