Game Directions: One student is in the center of the circle. On the words, “shake it baby shake it”, the student shakes some part of their body. All the students in the circle copy. “Drink the milkshake” - rumble to the bottom (roll arms), then to the top, and turn around. The student in the center turns around with eyes closed. The person they point to on the word “stop” is the next student in the middle. If that student has had a turn already, the student closest to the one being pointed to (that hasn’t had a turn) is next in the middle.
Let the children choose to be a senorita or a senor. For senor we sing “to see a senor with a hat on his hair.”
