Instructions

Before you begin
Mark out two large safe zones at opposite ends of your space and put lots of small
obstacles in the space between them for the blindfolded people to make their way
through.

Near, far, wherever you are
1. Everyone should get into groups of three and number themselves one, two, and three.

2. The number ones and twos should stand in one safe zone. The number threes should
stand in the opposite safe zone. The number threes shouldn’t move around in the safe
zone.

3. The number ones should put on a blindfold and stand inside a hula hoop held at waist
height by their number two.

4. The aim of the game is for numbers one and two to safely collect three pieces of
equipment and reunite with their number threes. Number ones must not touch the hula
hoop.

5. The person leading the game should start the game by saying ‘go’.

6. Everyone should work out how best to collect their equipment and reunite their groups.
Remind people that communication is key.

7. Every 30 seconds or so, the person leading the game should shout ‘change’ and the
number threes should move from one safe zone to the other.
The groups will have to try to reunite before the next change.

8. The game is over when all of the groups are reunited.
If one group finishes early, they could swap roles and start again.
