Tape a paper heart to the back of each child.
Have the children on the shout of go try to collect as many of the other players hearts as possible, while trying to protect their own! They can not pull, push or even touch the other children, only grab their paper hearts. Most children in their excitement will focus on capturing others hearts and probably lose their own!
When the game is over, announce that the winners are not those who have collected the most hearts but rather those who protected their heart and still have it.
When you have taqwa, you are focused only on protecting your soul. You don’t let anyone distract you or do anything that will harm your soul and take you away from Allah.
