Hello! My name is Nicole Valentine and on behalf of Expert Village, I'm here to talk to you about how to coordinate birthday games for a birthday party. Now we're going to talk about the challenge game. This is one of my favorites because this is a game for all ages. From ages 1 up to 99. As long as you can move your body. First thing, you need 2 people to start the game and you can have as many as a large group of 100. The first 2 people are facing each other and one person starts the game off by moving their body in no more than 5 different sequences. For example, one sequence would be a handclap. Then they may put their hands behind their back. They may stomp their feet. They may decide to put their head on top of their head, but no more than 5 sequences. The other person has to repeat those movements. If that person successfully repeats the movement, then you move on to another sequence that the leader who first started the game makes up a new one. Then if the opposing person successfully repeats that sequence, you get to the third and final one. If the opposing person successfully repeats those sequences, that person is now the leader. We'll show you an example. I'm the leader, so I'll start first. You didn't make that one. We'll give you another try. Good. New sequence. Third and final sequence. Now that what as an example of a challenge game. This game can go on for hours. The main thing is to have fun and competition always adds to that.
