Musical Tape

Like Musical Chairs, but without the chairs and more versatile!

Begin by giving each player a 6″ strip of sticky tape – duct tape, masking tape, etc., just make sure it doesn't leave residue when removed. Ask them to fix it anywhere on the floor. (Tip: first have them fold 1″ of the tape over on the end of the tape- easier to pull up later.)

While introducing and explaining the game, remove one of the strips. Tell the youth they are to move around the room while the music plays, but as soon as the music stops they must place a foot completely over the tape. If some of the tape is visible, the spot may be stolen. One player will be eliminated. With each round another strip is removed until it comes down to the final winner.

Because the duct tape is placed randomly, this game is different each time it is played. The choice of which strip to remove will greatly affect the strategies the kids must use to win.
