Freeze Dance
Music on, dance. Music off, freeze. That is the whole game.
The fastest way to turn restless energy into laughter, and better for self-control than it looks.
ما تحتاجه
- anything that plays music
طريقة التنفيذ
- Clear a space and put music on.
- Everyone dances until you pause the music.
- When it stops, everyone freezes in position.
- Anyone who moves does a silly forfeit rather than being out.
- Let a child control the music for the last few rounds.
