Directions

One person will leave the group and walk to a place where they can't hear everyone else. They are the guesser. The rest of the group will stand in a circle. With the person standing next to you, choose a line from song to sing. Each set of people should have their own song. Decide which person will sing which line of the song and match it up to one of their hands - read the example below if you are confused. After this part, each person will have 2 uniques lines of songs to sing, one on each hand. Then, everyone will rearrange the circle to a random order - not next to who they sing with. The guesser will come back and tap each of the players hands, trying to recreate the original order of the circle by matching the song lyrics. Example: Imagine Rachel, Diana, Tobi, and Leah are standing in the circle. Rachel and Diana choose the song "The Wheels on the Bus." When the guesser taps Rachel's RIGHT hand, she sings "the wheels on the bus go." When the guesser taps Diana's LEFT hand, she sings "round and round, round and round, round and round." Diana and Tobi choose the song "Let It Go" from Frozen. When the guesser taps Diana's RIGHT hand, she sings "Let it go, let it go". When the guesser taps Tobi's LEFT hand, she sings "Can't hold it back anymore".
