  • Playlist of dance music 
  • Music speaker device 

Before the meeting: 

  1. Select dance music that is energetic and fun for the Cub Scouts. 
  2. Create a space where the Cub Scouts can move about freely and not hit anything. 

During the meeting: 

  1. Have Cub Scouts form a circle around the dance floor. 
  2. Choose one Cub Scout to go first. Cub Scout will step into the center of the circle and make up a dance move. 
  3. The next Cub Scout will step into the center of the circle and repeat the same dance move. 
  4. After that Cub Scout mimics the first dance move, they then perform one of their own.  
  5. The third Cub Scout will repeat both dance moves and add a third move.  
  6. The game continues in this manner, with each dancer repeating and then adding a new move to the list.  
  7. Any Cub Scout who can’t copy or forgets the succession of the dance moves is out.  
  8. Play continues until only one dancer remains.
