What Time Is It Mr. Wolf - Have players line up at one end of the box. You or a parent can be Mr. Wolf. Have the kids call out at the same time âWhat time is it, Mr. Wolf?â. Mr. Wolf calls out a time: 1 oâclock, 2 oâclock, etc. If itâs 1 oâclock, the kids take one dribble then stop the ball with their foot....and so on. Once the kids get close to the other side where Mr. Wolf is, Mr. Wolf yells âLUNCH TIMEâ and turns around and chases the kids back to the starting line. The point is to have them dribble the ball back to where they started without getting caught.
