The leader (the adult or teacher) will say the name of something you must build.
For example:
A car π
A house π
A clock π
A cat π
A tree π³
A washing machine π§Ί
Your team now has 60 seconds to talk and make the figure using your bodies!
You can stand, sit, kneel, or lie down β whatever helps!
If the thing moves (like a washing machine or car), try to act out the movement too.
When the minute is over, each team shows their figure to everyone.
The leader (or judge) chooses which team did the best job.
The best team gets 1 point for that round.
Keep playing with new figures.
At the end, the team with the most points wins!
Be creative! Thereβs no wrong way to make a figure.
Work together and help each other.
Donβt worry about being perfect β the funnier, the better!
Remember to stay safe β no jumping on each other or rough moves.
