The rules of Steam Roller are quite simple really.
Needs 2 or more players.
- Lie down on floor as straight as possible. Other participants should lie down like this as well.
- Roll around on the floor with your arms at your side and your legs straight.
- Roll slowly over other participants and chant equally slowly “Steam Roller, steeeeaamm roooollleeerr…”
- Occasionally run out of gas in mid-roll so that the other participant has to bear your weight. He or she may try to give you pretend gas so you will start back up.
- Sometimes get a burst of crazy energy and roll really fast back and forth over the other participant. Chant quickly “Steam Roller, STEAM ROLLERSTEAMROLLERSTEAMROLLER…”
- Continue until you are exhausted or until your clothes are sufficiently covered in carpet fuzz and pet hair.
I hadn’t played Steam Roller in a long time but re-introduced it to my kids last night. Good times.
