- Choose three players to start the game.
- Player 1 declares "I am a tree!" and mimes a tree.
- Player 2 jumps in and adds to the scene, such as "I am a squirrel in the tree" and mimes a squirrel.
- Player 3 jumps in and adds another object, such as "I am a bird on the tree branch" and mimes a bird.
- Player 1 of the group then says "Keep the (object they want to keep)", and two new players jump in to create a new scene based on that object.
- Repeat steps 2-5 with the new group of players, choosing a new player 1 each time.
- Example round:
- Player 1: "I am a tree!" (mimes a tree)
- Player 2: "I am a squirrel in the tree" (mimes a squirrel)
- Player 3: "I am a bird on the tree branch" (mimes a bird)
- Player 1: "Keep the squirrel!"
- Player 2 and 3 exit, and Player 4 and 5 jump in.
- Player 4: "I am a log under the tree" (mimes a log)
- Player 5: "I am an acorn falling from the tree" (mimes an acorn falling)
- Player 1: "Keep the acorn!"
- Player 2 and 3 exit, and Player 6 and 7 jump in.
- And so on... Have fun and be creative!
