Resources
Device to play music
Instructions
Everyone should find some space and stand two metres apart – they should be able to swing their arms without touching anyone else.
Adults can join in with this game, so why not get everyone involved?
The person leading the game should put the music on.
Everyone should try out some different dance moves while staying in their area.
The person leading the game should turn the music off.
As soon as the music stops, everyone should stop moving and try to stay as still as a statue.
The person leading the game should try to spot anyone who moves. Anyone they catch moving is out – now they can help the person leading the game see who’s moving next time the music stops.
People don’t have to be out. People could win points for staying still, or you could just celebrate whoever is staying the stillest each time.
The last person left standing as still as a statue wins the game.
Reflection
During this game, everyone was courageous by dancing along to the music. Hopefully dancing with friends helped to boost people’s wellbeing too.
Once you’ve finished playing the game, take some time to reflect. You could ask questions, for example:
What dance moves did people enjoy doing?
Was it difficult to stay still when the music was turned off?
