THIS IS MY NOSE

TYPE: Shtick

Play in a circle

The leader walks around the inside of the circle, stops in front of one player, and says: "This is my ______" (pointing to one part of his body while calling it the name of another part of his body).  The player must respond (within ten seconds) with the opposite of what the leader did (pointing to the part of his body the leader said and calling it the name of the part of his body to which the leader had pointed).

Example:  Leader: "This is my nose" (pointing to his elbow).

     Player: "This is my elbow" (pointing to his nose).

If the player responds correctly before the leader counts to ten, he is "in"; if not, he is "out." Play continues with the leader asking more players.  The last X players "in" win.

Hint:  For large groups use more than one leader to quicken the pace.

Variation:  If the player can respond correctly within ten seconds, the player becomes the new leader.
