Tip: Anna *3 gives Anna three chances.

🖼️ Photos

Add pictures of people, pets or things. Each photo takes its file's name (ava.jpg becomes "Ava") and appears in every game. Photos stay on this device and are not in share links.

    Tip: start a name with an emoji, like 🍕 Pizza, for a picture without a photo.

      Ways to use this list

      • Friday choice: the student of the day spins, so the class can see the pick is fair and nobody argues with the teacher.
      • Cover lessons: leave the wheel on No equipment so a substitute teacher can run a safe game in any space.
      • Small hall on a rainy day: take off any game that needs lots of running room, such as capture the flag, before you spin.
      • Warm-up, then main game: spin a tag game for the first five minutes and a team game for the rest of the lesson.
      • Split the class with the random team generator first, then spin the game the teams will play.

      Press Spin the wheel, tap the game or press the Space bar. Change the list in the box as you like: add your own, delete what doesn't suit you, or write *2 after an entry to give it double the chance. The game buttons switch the same list to a duck race, hat, claw machine and more.

      Questions people ask

      What PE games need no equipment?

      Most tag games, plus Simon says, red light green light, duck duck goose, mother may I, shipwreck and what's the time, Mr Wolf. Press No equipment for a wheel of games that need just a space and a whistle.

      Which PE games work best for kindergarten?

      Short games with few rules and quick restarts keep little ones moving: Simon says, parachute games, musical statues, builders and bulldozers and red light green light. Press Kindergarten to spin only those.

      How do you play builders and bulldozers?

      Spread cones across the gym, half standing and half knocked over. One team are builders who stand cones up, the other are bulldozers who knock them down by hand, and after a minute you count which way more cones are facing.

      Is dodgeball suitable for every class?

      Schools set their own rules: some use soft foam balls and below-the-shoulder throws, others leave dodgeball out. Delete any game your school does not allow before you spin, then save the list so it stays that way.
