Instructions

Decide on your rules
1. Everyone should sit together in a group.
2. The person leading the game should help everyone to think about the differences between planets and stars. How do they move? How big are they? What do they look like?
3. Every time the group thinks of a difference, they should suggest an action that a person pretending to be a planet or a star could do to represent the answer. For example, when asked ‘how do you move?’ stars could stay perfectly still, while planets spin around.

Play the game
1. Split into two groups. One group are the stars, the other are the planets.
2. Everyone should move around the room to jumble up – they could walk, skip, or jump.
3. The person leading the game should call out a question from the list the whole group made together.
4. The stars and the planets should do the action the group agreed on, showing the answer for their group.
5. The person leading the game should keep calling out questions, and the stars and planets should answer with their actions.
6. After a while, the stars and planets should swap, and everyone should play again.
