Ring Around the Rosy
Players hold hands forming a circle; one wears or carries the 
sound source. One player (wearing a blindfold is needed) 
stands in the center of the circle. Skipping clockwise, 
everyone sings “Ring around the rosy, pocket full of posies, 
ashes, ashes we all fall down.” Everyone falls to the ground. 
After everyone falls down, the center player locates the 
player carrying/wearing the sound source; the two players 
switch places.
Sardines
All players wear blindfolds. One player hides, taking a 
sound source with him, while the rest count to 100. When 
the counting is fi nished, they set out to hunt. Any player 
discovering the hider crowds into the hiding place. Soon the 
players are packed in like sardines. If there is not room to 
hide in the same place, the fi nder sits down near the hiding 
place. When the last hunter discovers the spot, the game 
starts over with the fi rst fi nder becoming the hider.
Simon Says
The players stand facing the leader (teacher or another 
student). The leader says, “Simon says, ‘Squat!’” whereupon 
he squats. All players must do likewise. From time to time 
the leader makes a movement, omitting the words “Simon 
says,” saying, for example, “Reach for the sky.” In this case 
any player imitating the leader is eliminated. The contest is 
continued until a champion is determined. The winner is the 
leader next time.
Squirrels and Trees
Two players face each other and hold each other’s hands 
(like for “London Bridge”), making a “tree.” A third player 
(a squirrel) goes into the “tree.” The teacher (or another 
designated person) can start music, clapping, or a sound 
source. When the music or sound stops, the “squirrels” 
change “trees.” You can adapt the game to different levels 
by using letter sounds or different tones and rates of sound 
instead of music. It can also be used as a cooperative game 
or a competitive one like Musical Chairs. A sound source can 
also be placed by a “tree” for the player to locate.
Squirrels and Nuts
Squirrels collect nuts and save them to help get through the 
winter. This game gives players an idea of how diffi cult it can 
be to fi nd nuts.
Use acorns or other items. Have the class close their eyes 
while you hide a nut in the classroom. When hidden the 
teacher says “Nut, nut who can fi nd the nut?” The player 
who fi nds the nut can take it back to the tree where 
everyone can locate it (circle area). The fi rst player to fi nd 
the nut is the next to hide the nut. To make the game 
harder, use a low volume, low rate, and low tone on the 
sound source.
