Sometimes I find myself challenged as I take my daily walk. This game presented many challenges that I confess I was not up for. Besides, I did not want to ruin the very fine chalk artwork. It truly is amazing how creative people can be during times of trial. The kids (just assuming it was some kids) who worked on this game really thought out what could be fun for the people passing by. They even did a good job sizing the distances appropriately. Had I been more youthful, I probably would have done the challenges.
You may be surprised, but I was the 2nd Grade Hop Scotch champion of my class. Even had my own hoppytaw. I remember playing with my friends at school on the carefully painted Hopscotch courts.
But these homemade versions are much more colorful and fun! Love the gator crossing and the challenge to jump the waves!
Can't help admiring the work-from- home parents who are encouraging some creativity from their stuck-at-home kids.

Okay, okay, maybe I could have followed the crazy line. Would have gotten dizzy, though.
On my walk this afternoon, I have found several versions of these type sidewalk games. One other "follow the line" on a different street had many blue bare footprints all around the blue lines. And the chalk was all messed up.
I did not want that to happen to this beautiful pink artwork.

The last time I jumped over hurdles was back in middle school. No thank you! I will pass on these.
Oh no! Walk the tight rope across hot lava?!!! My youngest kids must have suggested this part of the game!
I remember my kids' Church dances where they did the Chicken Dance. My daughters were especially proficient at this dance and loved getting even the most uncoordinated boys out on the dance floor to do it, too.

"Almost to the end."
I like how they wrote encouraging sidebars to the different challenges. One said "Not far now. You can do it!" Another said "Almost there!"
Criss cross. Guess that means that the left foot goes in the right circle and the right foot crosses over to step in the left circle. The note to the right says "You did it" Then I guess you are supposed to continue on your morning run.
Another side bar said, "Have a nice day!" Guess I will. Thanks for brightening up my afternoon!
