Two-Hand Movement Challenge
Kids try to do two completely different movements with each hand at the same time. Simple to set up and impossible not to laugh at.
How to do it
- 1
Show kids a pair of movements, one for each hand — like patting the top of your head with one hand and rubbing your belly with the other.
- 2
Let each person try for 10 seconds. Harder than it looks.
- 3
Take turns calling out new movement combos and see who can do it.
