Instructions

Introduction:
This activity helps new Brownies to understand how to co-operate with others.

UNTANGLE THE KNOT

Instructions:
• Brownies stand in a circle
• Leader asks everyone to close their eyes and put their hand out in front of themselves.
• Brownies move forward into the centre of the circle reaching and catch two hands they find, which must belong to two different people. (Leaders will need to help ensure this)
• When they are holding two hands they open their eyes and find hands intertwined
• Leader explains they must now try to undo the knot which has formed and create one large circle or a few smaller circles without letting go of each other’s hands or breaking the link.
Game continues until the knot has been untangled.

NOTE TO LEADER: Sometimes it is not possible to create a circle or circles as a smaller knot that is impossible to undo may form.
