Piece of paper...or map

Instructions

Play the gameThe person leading the game should choose one person to be the pirate. They should sit in the middle of the space. Everyone else should sit in a distanced circle around the pirate.The person leading the game should put a piece of paper behind the pirate. This is the pirates map. The pirate should close their eyes and pretend to go to sleep.

You could laminate the pirate map to make it easy to clean between rounds or use a new map each time.

The person leading the game should choose a player in the circle to get the map. They should point to a player without making any noise.
The player who was chosen to get the map should silently get up, get the map, and sneak back to their place.
Meanwhile, the pirate should listen out for any noise. If they think they hear the player moving to get their map, they should open their eyes.
If the player is there, they should run away. They should run around the circle once and then sit down in their place. The pirate should chase them and try to catch them – they have to run around the circle once too.
Instead of physically touching each other to catch, they should just race back to their spot in the circle. If the player gets the map without being caught, they’re the winner.
Everyone should play again. They should keep playing, but they should swap the pirate every two or three turns (or whenever someone gets caught). Ideally, everyone should have a turn at trying to get the map.
