My wifey discovered this game from her time working at SpringHill Camps in Michigan.
Supplies:
None!
How to Play:
It's like "Simon Says" except there are limited and specific commands, each with their own sign. The leader yells them out and performs the sign. The students must follow along. If the leader does not say "order" before each command, the students must not listen to the leader.
Pro Tips:
- Do a practice round first, going over all of the commands and hand gestures
- Go fast
- Assign a judge
- When you say a command, do the hand gesture too. Eventually, say a command but do the wrong hand gesture in order to trip people up.
Here are the Commands, followed by their signs.
Order up
Arms out, palms up.
Order down
Arms out, palms down
Order 'bows
Stick elbows up, pointed in front of you, arms next to your head
Order lobes
Hold onto your ear lobes with both hands
Order nose
Touch your nose with your index finger, using both hands
Order Nibbly Bibbly
Make a "gun" with each hand (index finger extended, thumb up) and shake them up and down (Like they're shooting)
