Zip Zap Zop

Get ready

1. Have everyone stand in a circle.

How to play

1. The first person claps, points at anyone in the circle, and says 'Zip!'
2. The person they pointed at points at someone else and says 'Zap!'
3. That person points at someone and says 'Zop!' Then the next person starts over with 'Zip!'
4. Keep it moving as fast as you can.
5. If someone says the wrong word or waits too long, they take a seat (or just restart the round if you'd rather keep everyone in).
6. Play until two or three people are left standing.

Tips & variations

• Start slow so everyone gets the pattern, then speed up.
• Make sure kids point clearly and make eye contact so everyone knows who's next.
