This game is all about focusing and fast reflexes. This is a great game to play after lunch if scholars need to stand up and move around!

Instructions
- Everyone gathers in a circle with the moderator in the middle.
- There are multiple levels to this game:
- Level 1: The moderator points at someone and says “bippity bippity bop” as fast as they can. The scholar must say “bop” before the moderator finishes their phrase. If they don’t, the scholar must sit down and they are out. Also, the moderator can point at someone and say “bop”, then the scholar must stay quiet. If they say something, they are also out and must sit down.
- Level 2: The moderator points at someone and says “haunted house”. The scholar must crouch down and say “Come in! Come in!” in a ghoulish voice, while the scholars to their left and right must use their arms to make a roof over the first scholar.
- Level 3: The moderator points at someone and say “Hawaii”. The scholar must do the hula and the scholars to their left and right put their arms up like palm trees.
- Level 4: The moderator points at someone and says “Godzilla”. The scholar must stomp and roar like Godzilla while the scholars to their left and right cower in fear.
- If a scholar messes up, they’re out and must sit down! The last scholar standing wins!
