WATER

1. Your objective is to carry your bag through the lowland without losing any of your "load."

2. If a "load" falls on the ground, you must leave it there.

3. If you are tagged by "soil" or "plant," you must give a "load" to that player.

4. When you get to one edge of the playing field, you must step outside the boundary and walk through the upland are a back to the starting line.

5. As you walk through the upland area, refill your bag.

6. You can run if no "plants" are present.

7. You must walk if "plants" are present.

SOIL

1. Your objective is to collect "load" from the water players.

2. Because "soil" is everywhere, you are free to walk or run all around the lowland area.

3. When you tag a water player, you will receive one piece of "load" from that player.

4. You cannot immediately retag that player; you must pursue another water player.

5. You must hold all of your "load" any way you can as you continue pursuing water players. If you drop a piece, you must pick it up. You can use your pockets, etc., to hold the pieces.

PLANTS

1. Your objective is to collect "load" from the water players.

2. You must pick one place to stand and remain rooted there. You cannot move your feet, but you can bend and lean and reach with your arms.

3. When you tag a water player or a "water " bumps into you, you will receive one piece of "load" from that player.

4. Every other piece of "load" that you receive you must throw away. Try to aim for the upland, but don't worry if some fall within the lowland boundary
