kiddie tag team - a game for two players

04:21:2003
Objective: To reduce a parent or carer to a physical and emotional wreck

1. Once awoken, both children must be determined not to go back to sleep.

2. Only one child may sleep at a time.

3. No child shall go to sleep without first waking up their Tag Team partner.

4. Methods of waking one's Tag Team partner include (but are not restricted to): opening/slamming of bedroom door, switching on of light, loud wailing, requests for drink, loud rejection of drink when it arrives, coughing, sneezing, farting and snoring.

5. If parent attempts the 'cuddle you to sleep' tactic, one or more of the following may be employed at any time: Constant thrashing around, kicking parent's face, scratching parent, sudden rearing up, sudden crashing down again, application of dribble on parent.

6. If after ten minutes neither you or your Tag Team partner have moved, the parent may employ the 'sneaking out of the room' manoever. From the time the Parent touches the door knob, vigourous screaming may be employed. Points will be awarded for timing. (tactic: more points may be earned from delaying the scream until parent has gone into another room and started an activity such as making a cup of tea or just sitting down to their favourite TV programme)

7. Repeat for as long as the hell you feel like.
