How to play
Each person gently holds a soft “egg” between their knees. Waddle continuously without dropping it.
Take turns choosing where the penguins travel: around a chair, across the room, through a doorway, or in a circle. Mix tiny steps, larger waddles, sideways movement, gentle turns, and very slow movement.
If an egg drops, freeze, squat slowly to retrieve it, replace it, and continue from the same spot. There is no race or penalty.
Occasionally call “Sleeping seal!” Both penguins freeze and take one slow breath before continuing.
