How To Play The Left Right Story Game
Materials Needed:
- A group of 4 or more people
- Left-Right printable story
- A small prize or object to pass (see the ideas below)
1. Have participants stand in a circle. For larger groups, divide into two or more circles to ensure everyone can participate and enjoy the game.
2. Give the prize or object to one participant in each group to start.
3. The narrator reads the Left Right story aloud. Each time the word “left” is mentioned, the person holding the object passes it to their left. Each time the word “right” is mentioned, they pass it to their right.
Pro Tip: Emphasize the words “left” and “right” as you read the story aloud. It ensures participants know clearly when to pass their object.
4. Continue reading the story while participants pass the object.
5. Whoever is holding the object at the end of the story wins the prize!
Option: Give all participants a small candy bar before reading the story (use a variety!). When the game is over, everyone will be holding a sweet Halloween treat to enjoy.
