Game: Poison Pool (Cubs/Scouts) - TR

Report Copyright Infringement View in OSM UK

Description

Cubs hold hands in a circle around a pillar of buckets (the poison pool) about 1m high. If they touch the buckets or stop holding hands, then they are out, the last one left wins.


Resources

Enough washing up bowls or buckets needed to make a tower 1m high

Instructions

Create a tower of buckets 1m high and get the cubs to hold hands in a circle around it.
After a countdown (3..2..1..Go), the cubs can try to get other cubs out my moving and pulling on the circle so that a cub touches the buckets.
Once that happens said cub is out.
Reset the tower and repeat the steps until only one cub is left remaining (the winner).

If the cubs let go of hands then the game stops, and both the cubs who are no longer holding hands are out.
It can be better to just end the game with 2 cubs as the circle in the final round can be a bit small.
