Hot Potato Dress Up

Printed from healthyfamilycookin.blogspot.com

Another fun activity that we did was a game called hot potato dress up. This is a variation of the well-known and well-loved game "hot potato."

PREPARATION/MATERIALS:

Before the activity, gather up goofy dress up clothes and put them in a bag: fluffy bunny slippers, gaudy jewelry, a tutu, high heels, fireman hats, sunglasses, anything that you have on hand.

DIRECTIONS:

Everyone but one person stands in a circle. The person outside the circle is in charge of turning the music on and off with his/her back turned away from the circle. The people in the circle can either pass the bag of dress ups around or we just had them pass one of the soft potatoes that I made for the potato war. When the music is turned off, the person with the potato (or bag of dress-ups) gets to put on one of the dress ups in the bag. You can put each item in a smaller bag to keep them from feeling what they are if you want. Or have the person in charge of the music just hand each person a dress-up. Restart the music and replay. Everyone continues to play even when they've already had a chance to dress-up. It's really funny as they keep getting more and more things to put on. When all the items in the bag are gone, take a picture and/or vote for the best dressed Mr./Mrs. Potato head. It's a lot of fun!
