A fun, everyone-joins-in game that gets everyone excited!

Don Janken

[Batting Average 100% Class Activity] Don-Janken | It gets so hyped that it’s almost a problem.

A game everyone can enjoy, from kids to adults! Here’s an idea for “Don Janken.” Split into two teams; the team that reaches the opponent’s territory first wins.

When you do rock-paper-scissors, the chant is “Don janken pon!” This idea requires almost no preparation and works great with large groups—that’s the key recommendation.

However, because players can get too fixated on winning, disputes may arise near the territory line, so it’s best for adults to make the final call on wins and losses.

Give it a try!

Pyramid Rock-Paper-Scissors

Pyramid Rock-Paper-Scissors: Guaranteed to be a hit! A recreational activity

Let me introduce Pyramid Rock-Paper-Scissors, a game where you form a pyramid shape and work your way to the top.

Divide into two teams: Defense and Offense.

Draw horizontal lines to form 1–5 rows in a pyramid shape, and have the Defense team’s kids stand on each line.

The Offense team’s kids start by playing rock-paper-scissors with the player in the first row; if they win, they advance to the second row.

At the end, they face the King at the top of the pyramid—win there and they reach the goal.

If they lose at any point, they return to the start.

It’s a fun game that gets everyone moving and communicating, so give it a try!

Growth Janken

[Rock-Paper-Scissors] Let’s have fun from preschoolers to elementary schoolers! Great for large-group indoor play.

Grow bigger when you win at rock-paper-scissors! Here’s an idea for a Growth Rock-Paper-Scissors game.

Start in a crawling pose like a baby! Each time you win, you “grow”: from a crouching child to a standing adult.

You can play one-on-one, of course, but it’s also great fun with a large group.

To keep it fresh, try tweaking the pose you strike when you level up, or set rules like not playing rock-paper-scissors with the same person consecutively.

That way, everyone can enjoy it without getting bored!

Beef Tongue Game

A simple, no-props party game: the 'Gyutan (Beef Tongue) Game'

No tools or prep needed! Here’s an idea for the “Gyutan Game.” Gyutan means beef tongue, a popular cut at yakiniku restaurants.

This game uses your hands and voice.

Put your hands together and hold them out in front—ready to start! Say “gyu” out loud, and for each “tan,” one person claps in turn.

The first round rhythm is “gyu-tan gyu-tan gyu-tan-tan.” From the second round on, the number of “tan” at the end increases by one each time.

It’s simple, but it’ll trip you up and get everyone laughing!

Hoka-hoka Janken

Group game “Hoka Hoka Janken” with lyrics

Unique chants make it fun! Here’s an idea for “Hoka-Hoka Janken.” Split into two teams and have players take turns playing rock-paper-scissors.

Use the chant, “Janken, Hoka Hoka, Hokkaido!” before each round.

The representative of the team that wins stays on the spot, while the loser passes the turn to the next person on their team.

There are also variations where the team sizes change, so once everyone gets used to the game, try some tweaks for extra fun!

Majority Game

The Road to “Remote☆Host” No. 1 — Club Venere Edition #42: “Majority Game”

Let’s play by majority vote! Here are some ideas for a Majority Game.

A Majority Game is a game where the majority side is decided by voting.

Simply voting for your own opinion is fine, but the key to this game is that the majority is determined by majority vote.

Participate while trying to read what the other players are thinking.

In the end, adding a penalty for the player with the fewest points or a reward for the player with the most points can make things more exciting.

Give it a try!

Gyoza Rock-Paper-Scissors

[Play] Gyoza Rock-Paper-Scissors for 3 Players [Daycare/Kindergarten]

Let’s each throw out something different with rock-paper-scissors! Here’s an idea for Gyoza Janken.

In this game, rock is meat, scissors are chives, and paper is wrappers.

At the cue “Let’s make gyoza!”, everyone shows rock, scissors, or paper.

If all three are different, the gyoza is complete—shout “Let’s eat!” with energy! If everyone shows the same thing, shout “There’s only ◯◯!” If there are only two types shown, shout “We’re missing ◯◯!” It’s a unique game for groups of three!

Birthday line

[JO1 × INI] Funny Moments | With One Heart: Everyone Connects the Birthday Line [JO1/INI]

Let’s all connect and play! Here’s an idea for a Birthday Line game.

The rules are simple: everyone lines up in a single file in order from the earliest birthday to the latest.

It may sound easy, but there’s an important rule—no talking while you line up.

Use gestures to get into the correct order without making mistakes! If you take your time, you’ll definitely succeed, but adding a time limit makes it more fun because everyone starts to panic and think, “Let’s just line up for now!” Try this game with a big group!
