Rattlesnake

The group sits down in a circle.

One person is choosen to be "it".Blindfold the youth and spin them in cirlces.

Hand one other person in the circle something that they shake to make noise (eg maraca, bottle of pebbles, tambourine). It works best if you have something that is hard to pass on without making noise.

The students really have to pay attention. Once the youth blindfolded is done spinning, the leader will call out "rattlesnake"

Whoever has the shaker must give one shake and then pass the shaker off to someone else. The shaker will continue to be passed around the circle. The youth leader should continue to call rattlesnake more often until the blindfolded youth can catch the rattlesnake.

Whoever was caught will be the next one blindfolded.

                      This game sounds amazing. I'm going to try it with the kids at the recreation center today to see the results

                      We used a Christmas themed variation of this game tonight with the youth group (think jingle/sleigh bells.) They loved it! great fun and can be very active. Our group is currently mainly young teens.
