How to Play
Select one person to be the T-Rex leader who gives commands.
Have all the children stand in front so they can clearly hear the instructions
The T-Rex gives actions for the children to perform, but children must only follow the commands that begin with "T-Rex says"
Example: T-Rex says stomp like a dino.
If the leader gives a command without saying "T-Rex says " first, anyone who does the action is out for that round.
Example: "jump like a frog!" (Children should NOT jump)
Continue giving commands until only one child remains or play just for fun with no eliminations.
