"This is another traditional favorite game. Simon says. Of course, you don't have to be Simon, you could be anything you want. I'm dressed as a magician, so it can be, the magician says. Earlier on I was a pirate. You might want to do what the pirate says. This is how the game works. Everything you say you do, the children copy. But only if you say for them to do it. If you don't say it and the children keep doing it, they have to drop out. Let's have a go. The magician says, wave a magic wand, so we're going to wave the magic wand around. The magician says, carry on waving the magic wand, so we all keep waving the magic wand. Stop waving the magic wand. Any children that stop, well, they're out because the magician didn't say to stop. I don't like children who are out of games so what you can do is give them a life, say three or four lives, that gives them three or four chances to remain in the game. Should we have one more go? This time the magician says, let's be a magic bunny rabbit. The magician says, the bunny rabbit's got to hop. Stop hopping. Well done, you're still playing. The magician says to stop being a bunny rabbit. And that's how the game works. Simon says, have a great game."
