Musical Chair

Place chairs in a circle with the backs in the center of the circle. Have one less chair than children playing the game. When the music begins, the children will walk in a line around the circle of chairs. Stop the music without warning. When the music stops, the children will quickly sit in the closest chair. The player without a chair will be eliminated. Continue playing until there is only one child. If you are playing with many kids, you may remove more than one chair at a time, in order to speed up the game. You can use colored paper instead of chairs and have children stand on the paper when the music ends.
