  6. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com 2. The normal mat in the boxed game that forms the playing surface is decorated with six circles each of red, yellow, green and blue. Instead of the standard twister mat, cut Easter shapes from colored construction paper and use sticky-tack to adhere them to the floor. You can place them randomly or in rows of a single symbol for each row like the original twister game. Vary the number of symbols and rows to accommodate the size of your group. www.CreativeEasterIdeas.com

  7. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com 3. There are two spinners. If you don’t have a spinner you can easily make one. Make a twister spinner that includes right hand, left hand, right foot, left foot. You can also paste these onto the side of a die and roll the die in place of a spinner. The second spinner must contain the same symbols as those placed on the floor. In place of a second spinner you can put the symbols on small cards and place them in a bag. www.CreativeEasterIdeas.com

  8. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Game ObjectiveTouch the symbols on the floor with the correct body part as indicated by the spinner and the color and phrase of the symbol drawn from the bag. Do not let any other part of your body touch the ground. www.CreativeEasterIdeas.com

  9. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Game Play1. An appointed person spins the spinner and chooses the symbol (rolling the die or pulling the card with the symbol on it from the bag) and calls out instructions for the players to follow, such as: “left hand: Blue: Cross”, “right foot: yellow: Empty Tomb”. www.CreativeEasterIdeas.com

  10. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com 2. The players follow the directions, moving their hands and feet to the relevant symbols and try not to fall over–a knee or an elbow on the ground and they’re out. Use the wrong body part or the wrong symbol and you are also eliminated from the game3. The board can get quite crowded and the participants quite distorted hence the name “Twister.” How flexible are you? www.CreativeEasterIdeas.com

  11. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com VariationInstead of playing on an individual basis, divide the group into teams. The team with the last remaining members in the game wins. www.CreativeEasterIdeas.com
