Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. In advance, visit the Resources tab to download a sample list of Print+Play ‘Sit Down If…’ statements or questions that reflect particular characteristics and/or experiences of people.
  2. Gather your group, and ask them to stand.
  3. Announce that you will soon call a series of statements to the group from your list.
  4. If the statement applies to an individual, instruct this person to sit down, ie they are eliminated from the game.
  5. For example, you could ask “Sit down if… you sing in the shower, or … you have never ridden a horse.”
  6. Continue to read from your list, item by item, until you have eliminated everyone in your group, or only one person remains.
  7. Play a second round with a different set of questions, or try a variation.
