Bat and Moth
- Players: 8 – 20
- Duration: 10 - 15 min
- Average cost: $1
How to play
The group forms a tight safety circle. Inside it, one blindfolded player is the bat and two or three players are moths. The bat hunts by echolocation: every time the bat calls "Bat!", all moths must instantly answer "Moth!", and the bat homes in on the sound. The circle gently redirects anyone about to walk out of bounds. When a moth is tagged, they join the circle and a new bat or moth rotates in. A brilliant quiet-but-tense game that also sneaks in a science lesson.
