Report Copyright Infringement View in OSM UK

Description

The Leader explains the instructions to the girls. The girls then run around the meeting place with the Leader calling out various actions that they have to do:
- Runner Bean = running around
- Jumping Bean = hop
- Jelly Bean =
and wobble around
- Broad Bean = make themselves as broad as possible
-Green Bean = run to something green in the room
-French Bean = run around saying things like "O la la"
- Make up as many beans as you can - ask the children for more suggestions
- One girl is chosen to be the Baked Bean - when the Leader shouts "Baked Bean", the girl who is the baked bean must try and catch any of the other girls. If she catches anyone they too become a baked bean and the game continues until all the girls are "baked beans"


Resources

- a list of beans
- a pen to take note of any suggestions
- keep going until every one understands the game - and finish while it is going well
-say something like "okay this is the last one now" to give notice that it is going to end
