hand+slap

My kids beg for this...try it with no one getting out first.

The children make a circle, lying down on the floor on their tummies with their hands on the floor in front of them palms down---or sit in desks in a circle. So, each kid has two hands in front of her. One person starts- she picks the direction of travel of the slap and then she slaps her hand on the table. One slap means the slap continues in that direction, and a fist means that the direction is reversed. In either case only the hand immediately adjacent to her hand in the appropriate direction of travel is to go next. If someone misses their turn they are out and must remove that hand! (This gives each girl 2 chances at being 'out' which is more fun than messing up once and being removed from the game).
