Age: 5th grade and up
What You Will Need: An open space
Set-Up: Bring the group into a circle and assign a group facilitator
How to Play: The fellow begins by completing the sentence “sit down if…” with silly or strange phrases, such as:
Sit down if you ate chocolate today.
Sit down if you have been to Tel Aviv/Jerusalem this year.
Sit down if you eat corn on your pizza.
Sit down if you have a pet cat.
Sit down if you have a TikTok account.
Instruct kids to sit down if the statement is true for them. They continue saying random “sit down” commands until only one person remains. The last person standing gets a prize.
If this is a small group you may want to continue the game by saying the next command is to stand up or to clap your hands twice, etc. The most important part is to get them talking while having fun.
