Shrinking Islands
A close relation to musical chairs, this game uses towels — the "islands" — in place of the classic game's seats.

-
Before play begins, place a few old towels on the floor, making sure the group of towels offers just enough standing room for all of the players.
-
As in musical chairs, players must walk around in a circle whenever the music is playing. When the music stops, each player scrambles to stand on a towel (several players might be able to fit on one towel, depending on its size). Players are allowed to clutch onto a friend so that they can squeeze onto an island. Any player who can't stand with both feet on an island is out.
-
After each round, an island is folded (to reduce the available standing room) or removed entirely. You may want to switch to a hand towel or a washcloth for the final rounds. The last person standing on an island wins.
