Summary
Here's a physical warm-up to get the blood pumping. The facilitator calls one of three things: 'house', 'residents', or 'flood'. On 'house', you group into threes, with two of you making a roof with your arms and one standing inside. On 'residents', pair up and link arms. And on 'flood', scramble to climb onto something and get off the floor. Anyone left over is out.
How to Play
- The facilitator calls out 'house', 'residents', or 'flood'.
- Jump into the right group, or find a safe spot, based on the call.
- Anyone left over is out.
Required Materials
- An open space with things to climb on.
Purpose
