Before starting, the teacher should talk with students about different animals, including how they sound and how they move. Other possibilities include doing the Macarena, the "Gangnam Style" dance, twerking, a line dance, the twist, the mashed potato, the waltz, the tango and so forth.You could also have them sing and do the dance motions of classic children’s songs, such as “I’m a Little Teapot,” “Row, Row, Row Your Boat,” or “If You’re Happy and You Know It, Clap Your Hands.”.If you have a karaoke machine, you could bring that along and have the geese sing a song to that.They must either sing a song or do a dance together and then wait in the circle until another pair of geese is tagged. If the geese arrive first, the pickers go to the middle of the circle and put on a performance.If the pickers get back first, the geese become the pickers.They will walk around the circle and, with their linked hands, touch the linked hands of any two people, saying either “duck” or “goose.” The two people called goose must then run in the opposite direction, continuing to hold hands, and try to beat the other couple back to the geese spots. The people outside of the circle are the pickers and will also hold hands. The rest will form a circle facing inward and hold hands. Gather an even, not odd, number of at least 8-10 people, keeping two people out. This version of duck, duck, goose would be fun for all kinds of gatherings and parties. Here’s a twist: While the picker and goose are running and blocking, any player in the circle can get up and move to the goose’s empty spot, repeatedly, thus prolonging the round.Ĭouple up to sing and dance.The degree of physical contact in blocking, such as wrestling and tackling, is up to the group.If the picker gets back first, the goose becomes the picker if the goose gets back first, the picker goes again.When they meet, they try to block each other, therefore slowing the other down, and gaining an advantage in racing back to the empty goose spot.
If the person is called a goose, he or she must chase after the picker, running counter-clockwise. If the person is called a duck, he or she must do a squat or a push-up. The youngest person becomes the picker, jogs around the circle clockwise and taps or points at each person, saying either duck or goose. Get together a fairly large number of people and form a circle, with each person facing outward and standing about 5 feet (1.5 m) apart while jogging in place. Try extreme, or boot camp, duck, duck, goose.
