The child in the middle should close their eyes, spin slowly, and place one arm in front of them and point (like the hand of a clock).As the song plays, the children should start walking around the circle slowly.Start playing a song from The Lion King such as "Hakuna Matata" or "I Just Can't Wait to Be King.".The remaining child should stand in the middle of the circle.This game is a spin on duck, duck, goose but a lot more fun to play! What You'll Need: The object of this game is not to get caught by the hungry hyena (one of the children). Collect the cards, pass them out again, and start the game over.If the detective can identify the frog, then the detective wins.If the frog can eat all the flies except for one, the frog wins.The frog can stick his/her tongue out as long and as many times as he/she wants.The detective tries to figure out who is the frog by watching carefully.If any of the flies sees him/her they must fall on the floor and die.The frog makes sure the detective isn't looking and then sticks his/her tongue out really fast.When the game begins, the frog can "eat" the flies by sticking out his/her tongue.

The frog sits in the circle with everyone else, and keeps his/her identity secret.The rest of the children will have an X on their card, which means they are the flies.Whoever gets the card with an F is the frog.Whoever gets the card with a D is the detective, and that child sits in the center of the circle.Have all the children sit a circle, and pass out the index cards.Write the letter D on one card, the letter F on one card and the letter X on all the remaining cards.This game works well with 6 or more players. You will need one index card for each guest. If the "Goose" manages to catch and tag the "Tapper" before he or she sits down, then the "Tapper" is "it" again during the next round. If the "Goose" does not catch the "Tapper" before he or she sits in the vacated spot, then the "Goose" becomes the "Tapper" and the game begins again.The "Goose" runs around the circle after the "Tapper," who tries to get to the "Goose's" vacated spot in the circle and sit down before the "Goose" tags him or her.The "Tapper" walks around the outside of the circle and taps each seated child on the head, saying "Duck" with each tap until he or she randomly decides to tap someone and say, "Goose!".Select one person to be the "Tapper," then have all of the children except for the "Tapper" sit in a circle on the floor.This guide shows you all of our suggestions but you can also use our game ideas to come up with a few of your own.
