This game is similar to Musical Chairs, but it's played with partners. Choose partners using one
of the games from "Pairing Off Partners Games". Each set of partners decides to be a particular
animal. You could have a pair of monkeys, for example, a pair of anteaters, a pair of lions, and
so on. The partners who don't have chairs (the "It" couple) walk about the room together, saying the names of various Jungle animals. When their animal is called, the corresponding partners rise and follow "It" around the room. If the "It" partners say, "The jungle is quiet tonight," all players join the line. If the "It" partners say, "The jungle is noisy," everyone runs for the seats. Partners must hold hands as they run and keep holding hands as they sit. This makes for some pretty interesting problems. Of course, the "It" couple tries to get seats, and the unseated couple becomes "It" next time around. |
