  • All players line up in a circle and slowly flip a rhythm with their fingers.
  • -Player A then begins with a phrase in the form:"What is a what, without what?", e. g.:
  • +Player A then begins with a phrase in the form: "What is a what, without what?", e. g.:
  • - "What is a child without its **mother**?"
  • The next player B in the circle is now trying to rhyme an equally constructed sentence on it, e. g.:
  • - "What's a loaf of bread without a **cutter**?"
  • Then it's the next player's turn and he tries to rhyme a phrase on "cutter" again. It is rhymed until a player no longer comes up with anything, makes a mistake, or he comes out of the flick of a finger. Then the whole group calls:
  • - "Oooohh. What is a What is a What is a What is a What?"..."
  • -The next player in the circle now starts with a new sentence, which is also rebuilt in the form, e. g.:"What is a barrel without the **rum**? "What's the stick without a **drum**?" etc.

  • ## remarks
  • *Keep sentences as simple as possible, so that the words can be rhymed at the end of the sentence (rhymes are possible).
  • -*On some words at the end there are few or sometimes almost no rhymes, then for example work with half rhymes or similar rhymes, or start over.
  • +*On some words at the end there are few or sometimes almost no rhymes, then for example work with half-rhymes or similar rhymes, or start over.
  • *Sentences and rhymes don't necessarily have to make sense, the exercise is first and foremost about fast reactions and the group rhythm.
  • *The sentences can also be used in an extended version as defaults to play small scenes from it.
