Instructions
1. Lay out your stick figure shape on the floor the way you want it on the body.
2. Snap the glow sticks so they light up.
3. Connect some of the body pieces. Connect: 2-3 leg pieces x2, 2-3 arm/shoulder pieces x2, 2-3 Face pieces in a circle, 2 center body pieces
4. For the “Face”: Tape the circular face piece to the back of a hat OR the brim of the hat.
5. Using your tape, tape on body pieces to clothing.
6. Find a dark room, or outside at night and have your dance off!
Tips:
Tape on the connected parts of the glow stick so they stay on longer.
You may have to tape multiple times.
To use this activity with the experiment badge - ask YP to explain what they think will happen / what it will look like before you dance, and get them to review what worked / didn't work well after you dance (e.g. sticks fell off, not dark enough etc.)
