KYE KYE KULE

A fun activity that builds skills in leadership and in following directions. Children form a circle as the leader stands in the middle. The leader demonstrates some physical action, then the children in the circle repeat that movement as they repeat the leader'swords. With each repetition of the song, the leader introduces a new action, each one moving closer and closer to the floor. After the last movement is performed on the floor, the leader jumps to his feet. The first child in the circle to get back up on his/her feet gets to be the next one to lead.
