Ball of wool per Six

Instructions

Introduction
These games will help Brownies gain knowledge that a Spider has eight legs.

Instructions Spiders and Flies

• Divide the Pack into pairs
• Each pair will require a coin, 2 pencils, 2 sheet of paper
• One Brownie is the spider and the other the fly in each pair.
• Brownies take it in turn to toss the coin.
• As soon as it comes up heads, both can draw their creature’s head.
• After that, the game continues in the same way, but now heads always stands for spiders and tails for flies.
• Each time a Brownie tosses the coin and it comes down in her favour – heads if she’s the spider and tails for the fly – she can add another leg, body or wing to her creature.
The aim of the game is to be the first to draw a complete picture of your creature, as shown.


Instructions Noughts and Crosses

Play as traditional noughts and crosses except each pair use spiders and flies instead of the noughts and crosses. By the time a few games have been played everyone should know that a spider has eight legs.

Instructions Spider Relay Game

This is a relay race
• A ball of wool per Six – the wool being the length of the hall
• First Brownie in each Six, holding one end of the wool, crawls on all fours, spider-style, to the end of the room. The second girl holds the ball of wool and allows it to unwind. When the first girl reaches the end of the room, she turns and winds the wool back into a ball as she returns. The ball is then given to the third girl while the second girl crawls and so on.
