finished eating and perform the magic tricks as specified in the ’15 min magic plan’ document attached to your confirmation email.
Set Two (45 mins)
13. PASS THE PARCEL: ‘The Incredits’ (from ‘The Incredibles’) written by Michael Giacchino
Announce that “Pass the Parcel is about to start as an incentive to get the children re- focussed and back into a circle. Make it clear to the children before you play the game that “everybody gets a turn.” Play the track and the children pass the parcel around in a circle. When you pause the music, the child holding the parcel opens a layer and keeps the gift inside. Use a remote control to pause the music so you can help the younger children pass the parcel and open it when it is their turn. The children can eat their treat, put it in their pocket or give it to an adult to mind so that it does not distract them from the rest of the party.
14. PRINCESSSAYS*
Tell the children you hope they haven’t forgotten how to be princesses and superheroes whilst eating all that delicious tea! Tell them that you are going to test them again by playing a game a bit like ‘Simon Says’ called ‘Princess Says’! If you say “PRINCESS SAYS touch your toes” then they must copy you and touch their toes, but if you don't say “PRINCESS SAYS” and simply say “touch your toes” then they must remain still! Start with some easy instructions like: “PRINCESS SAYS touch your toes/spin around/hug a friend/jump/clap” and remove the “PRINCESS SAYS” whenever you see fit! Then move onto some princess and superhero themed actions, such as curtsey/make a tiara/ballroom dance/rescue someone/shoot webs/fly like Superman/catch a baddie etc. You may need to demonstrate the princess and superhero actions before including them in the game.
15. CHOREOGRAPHEDDANCETWO:‘LetItGo’performedbyIdinaMenzel
Click on song name to open the video in YouTube.
“Put your hand up if you can tell me which super power Queen Elsa has... I’m going to give everyone a magic scarf to give us ice powers just like Elsa. When we swish our scarves things turn to ice.” Hand each child a coloured scarf and practice the tricky moves (including the bridge for 5-6s).
During the bridge where Elsa builds the ice castle, 3 - 4s should all pretend to be Elsa and do the freezing and melting as in the video. Children aged 5-6 perform the following choreography. The birthday girl is Elsa in the middle. The other children go into the four corners of the room and wait (the children will probably need to practice dancing in the middle then finding their corner several times). You stay with 'Elsa' in the middle. The children in the four corners dance. You and Elsa say “freeze” as you swish your scarves towards the first corner and the children in that corner freeze. Repeat for the other three corners. The first corner will be during the lyrics “my power flurries through the”. The next corner is “air into the ground”. The next corner is “my soul is spiralling in”. And the final corner is “frozen fractals all around”. Then go to each corner at double speed for the remaining lyrics to 'melt' the children so they dance again.
Play the track and perform the dance as in the video.
16. CHASING GAME*: ‘Catch the Princesses and Superheroes!’ (sung to the traditional tune of ‘Tiny Tim’)
“And now you’re going to have a short princess and superhero lesson. I am the teacher and you are my students. Follow me.” Sing the song acapella and perform the actions as indicated by the lyrics.
“Every superhero must learn how to fly.”
The superheros are flying, the superheroes are flying, the superheros are flying, in the superhero class.
“Every princess must learn how to twirl.”
