Okay kids stand in line and face me! Each of you has 3 cards, one blue, one yellow, and one, oh eww, pink!

Now that you're all in a line, look at the person at your right and the person to your left. Now, whenever someone on your right tells you to change your color, it's your job to change your color and to tell the person on your left what the new color!

OMG now you all have pink cards! Ewwww! Okay now person number 2 you change your card and, remember to tell the person on your left what you did. Wait for kids to pass their props. Now all of you are blue except person number 1!
