Group Counting Activity


 
Notes:
This is a simple activity to fill a few minutes
Instructions:
Gather the group together and have them sit down - NOT in a circle or other pattern.

Ask everyone to close their eyes and keep them closed.

Objective: Count to N, the number of scouts in the group.

Rules:
  1. No looking, talking, or touching.
  2. Every scout says exactly one number.
  3. If two scouts say the same number, start over.
  4. If the wrong number is said, start over.

After you stop them, they should restart immediately. It may take many turns, but they will work out a pattern through to the end.


Reflect:
Who took leadership?
Was there a leader or was everyone equal?
What teamwork was needed?
What communication occurred?
How did you rely on other people?
