Informations supplémentaires sur le jeu

This game concept was developed during an Open StreetwiZe leadership expedition in a refugee center in Pelt, Belgium.

Variations

Variation 1 – Secret numbers
  1. Each player receives a small card with a number (1–6).
  2. When the conductor points to a circle, only the player with that number performs the action.
  3. Great for attention and self-control training!

Variation 2 – Rhythm Sequences
  1. Create a rhythm sequence by choosing several colors/numbers in a row.
  2. The group practices the full sequence (e.g. clap, stomp, shout).
  3. For added fun, roll one die to decide the sequence (e.g. 3 – 5 – 1), and a second die to determine how many times to repeat it.
  4. The group tries to perform the sequence together in rhythm.


Variation 3 – Homemade instruments jam
  1. Provide materials for the players to create simple instruments (e.g. paper cup shakers, bottle cap castanets).
  2. Replace or combine the body percussion with these instruments.
  3. Let the conductor guide a musical performance using a mix of body and handmade sounds!
