Instructions

1. Start with the Basics

Begin by "writing" your name in the air using your finger. Make the letters big and bold!

2. Explore New Moves

  • Try writing your name with your elbow—keep those joints moving!
  • Use your foot to draw each letter, balancing as you go.
  • Wave your knee to spell it out—this one’s tricky but fun!

3. Get Creative

  • Use your head to write your name—nod, tilt, and sway!
  • Try with your hip—it's a hilarious workout for everyone.
  • Point your shoulder and draw the letters like you're a human pen!

4. Ultimate Challenge

  • Write your name with your tongue in the air (no touching anything—just pure silliness!)
  • Use your toes for tiny, invisible letters.
  • Finally, draw your name using your whole body—stretch tall for big letters or curl small for tiny ones.

5. Group Twist (Optional)

  • Take turns and let others guess what’s being spelled, or assign random body parts for the ultimate laughter-filled challenge!
