Then draw a number, read it out, and the person standing on that number gets a cake! Hooray! If no one is standing on the number, draw another until you find a winner. As soon as the music stops, everyone stands on the number he or she is closest to. As the music plays, everyone walks around the circle, stepping from one numbered circle to another (or walking in between them). To start, have each player select a number to start on. You can do a round with as little as three or four players.
Also, you don’t need a player on each number to start the game. Once you have your numbers down, your cakes ready for your winners, and your music ready to play, invite your players! When I’ve played at carnivals or school fairs, the cake walk booth stays open until enough players come to join, then the person running the booth starts the game.
(Tip: If you don’t have laminated numbers, use packing tape to completely cover them so they don’t peel up when kids step on them.) Tape your numbers in a big circle on the floor. Decide how many players you want to include in each round: that will be the number of laminated paper numbers you tape on the floor. How to play: First, there’s the game setup. Finally, you’ll need some way to play music, like an iPod with speakers. You’ll also need some laminated papers with numbers on them and slips of paper with corresponding numbers in a jar or bowl (and I’ve made a free version you can download if you want). Other prize ideas could be cupcakes (smaller than cakes, but the same idea), toys, or candy. You would need a cake for every round you want to play. Traditionally, the prize is a cake for each winner (hence the name “cake walk”). What you need: You’ll need some prizes for your winners. Often played at school carnivals or holiday parties. What it is: Basically a skill-less game used to randomly select one player to win a prize.
