Wiggle Waggle

Curious & dextrous physical stunt to inspire play.

  • Generates energy
  • Partner activity
  • No props

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Instruct each person to place their two hands in front of them in a prayer-like manner (palms pressed together.)
  2. Without moving any other fingers, move each of the middle fingers so that they cross side to side.
  3. The middle fingers should be resting perpendicular to all other fingers.
  4. Ensuring no other fingers cross, slide the palm of one hand away from the body while the middle fingers remain interlocked.
  5. Keep sliding until the fingers of each hand partially overlap the palm of the other.
  6. The middle fingers will be pointing in opposing directions on top of each other.
  7. Now, wiggle these two extended middle fingers for fun.
  8. After a few minutes of practice, invite each person to find a partner.
  9. Starting with hands by their sides, on “GO” the first person to Wiggle Waggle, wins.

    I am looking for virtual activities for classes I saw this that I had not seen before and I have an idea on how to give the virtual adaptation another twitch.
    Everyone on the screen has their hands down.. When you spotlight someone, that is the CLINT EASTWOOD Look and everyone has to do it and see if they beat the Spotlighted character. If they did they stay where they are . If they did not the turn off their camera and turn it back on.. that takes them to the end of the line on most screens except their own.
    No scoring.. just the spotlight and the movement on screen can be interesting.. you can ask after a while.. who did not loose and even using hide self view.. have everyone watch a battle.
