What is another word for musical chairs?
Pronunciation: [mjˈuːzɪkə͡l t͡ʃˈe͡əz] (IPA) 
Musical chairs is a popular game that has been known to many since childhood. It involves players walking around a set of chairs arranged in a circle. When the music stops, players race to sit on a chair before they all get taken. Similar to musical chairs, there are other games that have the same concept. There is also the term "musical statues" where players freeze when the music stops and the last one to freeze is out. Another synonym for musical chairs is the game "telephone". In this game, players pass a message around in a circle, and the message gets distorted as it passes along. The basic idea of moving around in a circle until the music stops or a designated action occurs is the same across all of these games.
