People to People

The group members stand in a circle, each with a partner. One individual is assigned to be the caller; he/she calls out body parts for two members to touch together (appropriateness must be addressed during the instructions from the facilitator). For example, the caller might say: "Foot to knee"; one partner of each pair will then touch his/her foot to the other partner's knee. Then the caller may say: "Head to ear," and one partner will put his/her head to the other's ear. There is no right way to determine which partner does what. With each new call the partners "un-do" the previous call. As the caller gets faster, the game moves faster. When the caller says: "People to people" all partners change and the caller grabs one of the group members. The person who is without a partner becomes the caller. If there is an even number of group members, the facilitator may play; if the group has an odd number of members the facilitator may choose to only instruct and observe.
