Try setting the Tween’s target to `group.getChildren()`.

Thank you very much~

But i don’t want to change element in group，I just want to change group…emmm…

for example：  
[https://labs.phaser.io/view.html?src=src\tweens\checkerboard%203.js](https://labs.phaser.io/view.html?src=src%5Ctweens%5Ccheckerboard%203.js)

I want to add scale/rotation tween animation to blocks group…what should I do？

I don’t exactly understand what you’re asking. The example you linked adds a tween with an increasing delay to each child of a group. If you want to replicate it, look at its code to see how it iterates the group.

Keep in mind that groups in Phaser 3 are just a list of objects that aren’t treated as one like in Phaser 2. If you want to operate on the group itself, you should instead use a container.
