The most important thing with brainbreaks and activities is:
Try try try!  Try them right away~if you put it on a shelf you will forget.  We forget so quickly, don't we?!

And if you try, and they don't work with a group, but YOU yourself like it, try them again with another class.  The point is 'Do YOU like it', ?  as La Maestra states as one of the most important points of our conversation.

I put this into practice :
I found a brainbreak under the link of 'The phonics man' which just fits my school so well.  It is around 'Gummibears' and if you have following me for a bit, you know that all of my students know and dance the Gummibear dance every year at our event.

Well, I did it with the first class>>>they were tired right away and were just going 'Why are we doing this?  I want to stop' (6 , 7 year olds)
I tried next period with 8 year olds>>>It was better, but they still missed a bit of fun, no idea why.
Then I tried next class with 8,9 year olds and they were going crazy over it.

It would be lovely to get some comments .
