Description

Fun, easy circle game for the summer

Resources

Cup and nearby access to water

Instructions

1. Split into groups of 5 - 10; each group stands in a circle
2. One person is chosen to leave the circle. They turn their back and half fill their cup of water.
3. Meanwhile, the leader/sixer/PL gives everyone in the circle a number to remember, counting up from 1.
4. After this, everyone shuffles places so the order of numbers is random.
5. The leader then calls back the outside person and asks them to choose a number between 1 and X, which they whisper to them. The leader can also check there is an appropriate amount of water in the cup.
6. The person with the cup stands in the middle of the circle, and goes round asking each person their number. When someone replies with the chosen number, they chuck the water at them.
7. That person gets the cup, and the game repeats.

NOTES
If the tap is far, you will need a leader relaying a jug of water to pour into the cups.
