Description

The object of this game is to get each blindfolded member of your team from one side of the "mine field" to the other faster than the opposing team.

Resources

Blindfolds or scarves
Sheets of Paper/ Paper Plates or Cups

Instructions

Set up a "mine field" by randomly placing the 'landmines' (Sheets, plates ir cups) on a marked section of
ground within the hall. Preferably along the length of the hall with a 'safe area' at either end.

Try to even out the number of young people in each team.
Give each team a blindfold. One member of each team should be blindfolded. Only blindfolded players may enter the minefield.

The point of the exercise is for the ENTIRE team to get across the mine field with the fewest casualties, the fastest.
If a person TOUCHES a mine she is out and has to go back to the beginning. Once a player manages to cross the next player is blindfolded until everyone has managed to cross.

The other team members must be their eyes and tell them which way to go.
The blindfolded people crossing the field must stay within the set boundaries, and only one person per team may be on the
mine field at a time (so they can't lead them by touch).
Team members help each other by shouting directions from the safe areas.

Works best if mines are close together and if teams are close together.
