How did the game musical chairs start?

If two people are playing musical chairs, they should use ONE chair. You put on music and run around the one chair, ideally the music is on a timer as you have no one to stop the music. When the music stops, whoever sits down first on the chair wins! This will be a very short game - so I would recommend playing "best of three." Or finding some more friends to play with more chairs.

What are some suggestions of music games?

Some of the best music games revolve around basic kinetic motion. The best example is the game Musical Chairs, which children or adults rotate in a circular motion around chairs until a musical number stops playing. When the music stops, everyone sits down and there is one fewer chair than players. The person left standing is eliminated.


How many chairs do you need to play musical chairs?

If you had 20 people playing, you would need 19 chairs........ So just 1 less than the people. Actually you can start the game with any number of players so long as there is 1 chair "missing". But, to continue the game, after someone has been sent "out" for not managing to grab a chair, you remove another chair quickly so that there is always 1 chair less than the number of competitors at that time.
