Horses, Knights and Cavaliers

A brilliant alternative to Musical Chairs!

MA0046

Get the group in to pairs – if the group has males and females it is ideal to get them in to pairs of the opposite sex.

When the music’s on, the pairs must prance and dance around at will.  When the music stops the games facilitator shouts either ‘Knight’, ‘Horse’ or ‘Cavalier’

  • Knight means the male has to give his partner a piggy back
  • Horse means the male has to give their partner a horse ride by getting on all fours
  • Cavalier means the male has to get down on one knee and the female sits on it

The last couple to execute the maneuver is out and so the game plays on until the remaining couple is announced the winner.

A simple game which is why it is so good!

Have fun :)

    Yeh good game.

    Can’t believe the above poster said great craic (haven’t heard that term for a while)

    But always good craic :)
