- Overview:

- Partners remain connected as they act out these types of beans:
- Baked beans - make a small shape with your bodies.
- Broad beans - make a wide stretched out shape with your bodies.
- String beans - make a tall stringy shape with your bodies.
- Jumping beans - make your beans jump!
- Runner beans - run on the spot with your partner.
- Chili beans - shiver and shake with your partner.
- Jelly beans - wobble and shake like Jell-O with your partner.
- French beans - do the can-can attached to your partner.
- Lima beans - make a fat and thin shape together.
- Beans in the pot - variety of movements from groups to show all the beans they know.
