PEANUT BUTTER HEAVEN

YOU PLAY ON SOME STEPS, EACH STEP HAS A COLOR. AT
LEAST TWO PEOPLE MUST PLAY. ONE PERSON IS IT. HE
STANDS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE STEPS AND CALLS A COLOR
OF A CERTAIN STEP. THE OTHER PERSON TRIES TO JUMP
TO THAT STEP. IF HE (OR SHE) MAKES IT TO THE STEP
HE WILL CALL ANOTHER STEP THE PERSON WILL
KEEP CALLING STEPS OR COLORS TILL THE PERSON MISSES.
IF HE MISSES FIRST TRY HE (OR SHE) WILL BE IT. THIS
GAME WILL GO ON FOR AS LONG AS YOU WANT.
