Magic 4 Corners

Space Requirements:

Medium - Large

Group Size:

5+

Duration:

5min - 25min

Equipment:

  • 4 Corners Dice

  • Laminated suits cards placed in the corners of the room

  • Bluetack if needed to stick the suits up (Optional)

  • Music ready to play (See our Magic Games Playlist)

Objective:

Choose all the correct corners and remain in the game until you are the last one left.

How to Play:

  • Kids will dance as music plays. Once music stops they choose a suit/corner and move to that location. There must be at least 1 person in each corner. A verbal 5 second countdown is given by the leader for kids to make their way into one of the corners. After the countdown kids can't change their corner.


  • Dice is rolled. If a suit lands face up everyone in the matching location is locked in the middle of the room. (the only way for them to be unlocked back into the game is if the dice lands on a key)


  • Arrow on the dice is used for single elimination. If arrow is on top everyone freezes and the leader walks in the direction of the arrow and if the dice bumps anyone they are out.


  • This continues until one player remains


  • Ask the children to roll the dice like…A superhero, A dragon, A cat, A giant


Variations:

  • Instead of the suit rolled being locked into the middle, the suit rolled is now safe and everyone who isn't in that suit now has to got in the middle (roles reversed). This is a good variation for the last few rounds, or if you want the game to go quick.
