This is a simple game the Brownies in my unit love to play again and again.
Girls run, jump, skip, etc. around the room. When "caller" calls out
"IGLOO" girls must stop & crouch on the floor, huddled up, arms sheilding
heads (body now shaped like an igloo) so as not to peek. The caller then
entirely covers a girl with the sheet. When given the o.k. to look, the
other girls must figure out who is hidden under the blanket.
Our girls love to get tricky and cover a cluster of Brownies whenever
possible. (This is the reason for the light-weight blanket, as it can
sometimes be a few minutes before the last girl in a cluster is identified
and the girls can get hot under the blanket!)
It is a great "ice-breaker" for the beginning of the year!
MATERIALS NEEDED:
a large sheet or *light-weight* blanket.
# PLAYERS:
the more the merrier
When they guess correctly, the hidden player reveals herself, and she is
now the caller.
