Twister? It's a classic! Think hilarious poses, friendly competition, and maybe a little bit of a workout. It's super fun for kids and adults alike. This guide will teach you everything you need to know, whether you're a newbie or a Twister pro.

What You Need

• A Twister mat: That big, colorful mat with all the circles. It's the star of the show!
• A spinner: This thing tells you where to put your hands and feet. Get ready for some crazy moves!

How to Play Twister

The goal is simple: stay on the mat longer than everyone else. Sounds easy? Think again! It's a mix of strategy and keeping your balance.

Let's Play!

1. Set up the mat: Spread it out on the floor. Make sure there's plenty of room around it.
2. Spin the spinner: Someone spins it. It'll say something like "right hand, red."
3. Place your body part: Put your right hand on a red circle. You might look silly…and that's half the fun!
4. Keep going: Everyone takes turns. Try not to fall!
5. Oops, you fell: If you fall, or touch the mat with the wrong body part, you're out.
6. The winner: The last one standing wins! Bragging rights are yours.
