Birdie On a Perch

Birdie On a Perch


No PrepNo MaterialsActive
ANTNNSHS
Active group game where groups have to race to perform certain actions/poses.

Setup
Organize the group into two concentric circles.
Have participants partner with someone in the opposite circle.

Objectives
Work quickly with your partner to be the last pair left in the game.

Rules/Instructions
First describe the three moves (these are example moves, you can name and adjust these actions however you like depending on the lesson or Gospel you are teaching that week):

  • Monkeys in the Jungle: the pair links arms and jumps around like monkeys while making monkey sounds.
  • Birdy on a Perch: one person gets on one knee, and their partner sits on it, flap their arms and “tweet! tweet!”s like a bird.
  • Lions in the Jungle: one partner gets on their knees  on the floor and holds their hands up as if they were ready to scratch, and the other stands behind their partner with their hands in the same position. Both partners roar like a lion.

To start the round, both circles start jogging in opposite directions. While they are jogging, they either can be singing a song or you can be playing music.

When facilitator calls out a move, such as “BIRDY ON A PERCH!” the participants find their partner and act out the move as quickly as possible. The last pair to do the move is eliminated. They can help the facilitator judge.

Continue until there is only one pair left, and that pair is the winner.
