Dancing animals
When the music starts, the game leader gives a command on how the participating children move between the elements, for example:
- walk forward/backward/sideways
- touch the butt with heels while walking
- jump like a frog
- hop on one leg like a flamingo
- walk quietly on tiptoes like a cat
- walk on the ground and stomp like an elephant
Now very quiet
At music stop, the game leader calls out a task to the children, which they fulfill as quickly and quietly as possible, for example:
- climb onto a Stapelstein® Original in pairs
- put a Stapelstein® Original on their head
- stand only on red elements
- sit inside a Stapelstein® Original
- stand on one leg on an element
The journey around the Stapelstein® elements
The elements are arranged in a circle. There is one element less than the participating children. You run around the elements to the music. When the music stops, try to get onto a free element as quickly as possible. Whoever doesn't find a place is out. Now an element is removed and the game starts again.
Find yourself a new one
While the music plays, each child stands on one leg on an element. When the music stops, you leave your element, find a new Original and stand on it with the other leg – on one leg. If you haven't found a new element when the music starts, you pause for a round.
