CONCENTRATION

EVERYONE GETS A NUMBER. YOU THEN BEGIN TO CLAP.
FIRST SLAP YOUR THIGHS, THEN CLAP, THEN SNAP YOUR
RIGHT FINGERS, THEN YOUR LEFT. YOU SAY "CONCENTRA-
TION, KEEP IN RHYTHM, READY, LET'S GO, LET'S GO,
LET'S GO." THE FIRST PERSON SAYS THEIR NUMBER ON THE
FIRST FINGER SNAP AND SOMEONE ELSE'S NUMBER ON THE
SECOND SNAP. THAT PERSON MUST RESPOND WITH THEIR
NUMBER AND SOMEONE ELSE'S IN RHYTHM. IF YOU MISS,
YOU'RE OUT. THE LAST ONE TO MISS WINS.
