Description
Players sit in a circle on chairs or kneel in a tight circle. The leader illustrates a horse race by making the appropriate moves and giving commands for them. All players have to take the commands and imitate the leader.
"Start!" - clap once
"Horses run away" - clap your hands on your thighs
"Left turn!" - all players bend to the left, keep clapping
"Jumping over the obstacle" - hands up, mimic jumping
"Right turn!" - all players lean to the right, keep clapping
"Joy" - hands in the air, shouts of joy
"Fall" - spectators shout
"Boo!" etc..
If no other command is given, the horses run away, so the players continuously clap their hands on their thighs.
