Playing with Dance

Directions

Get everyone involved in this group dance. Put on some lively music that everyone likes and clear a big open space. Someone start as the leader by making up some interesting, funny steps that everyone can follow along with for a few minutes. When the leader raps someone else on the shoulder, everyone begins to follow along with the new leaders steps for a few minutes before the next leader is tapped. Keep going as long as you like.
