Description

Teamwork Activity to form a rope square while blindfolded


Resources

Long rope and blindfolds for all Scouts

Instructions

Stand Scouts in a line or rough circle and blindfold them. Get each Scout to hold onto the rope then ask them to move around until the rope forms a square shape. The Leaders or sighted referee decides when shape is close enough to a square to end the activity.

If you need to extend the activity, and you have an even number of scouts, ask them to form a star with the number of points equal to half the scouts holding the rope. (10 Scouts = 5 pointed star)
(Hint - Form a circle, number themselves off 1,2,1,2 etc then the 1's take a pace forward.. )
