"Head, Shoulders, Knees...CUPS," A Fun & Easy Mixer for Club

Get enough cups for half of the group. If you have a club of 40, get 20 cups.
Have everyone get a partner (be on the look for folks without partners and have leaders make sure no one feels left out.)
Partners face one another with hands on knees.
Have the skit character running the game call out commands like “Head” and everyone has to listen carefully and touch their heads.
The commands continue in random order (knees, shoulder, elbows, toes, eyes, ears…..CUP!)
After “cup” is said, the first person to grab the cup moves on to the next round and finds a new partner. The other person takes a seat.
Last one standing wins.
