How to play
1. You'll need to play in a room with four corners, so it can't be circular. 2. Each corner must be labelled with a number, from 1-4. 3. The person who is blindfolded (preferably some type of facilitator) will go into the middle of the room and begin counting to ten. All of the other players must scramble for one of the four corners. If anybody cannot make it to a corner in time, they must be eliminated for the round. 4. When the countdown is done, the facilitator will yell out a number between 1 and 4. Anybody in the corner of that number is eliminated for the round. 5. This pattern goes on until there is only one other person standing. They win!

Squirrels
Everyone gets into groups of three. Two people stand facing each other and join hands to create an arch they are the tree, the third person crouches underneath it and becomes the squirrel. You need one extra person to be the 'caller'. (If you have odd numbers you can have two callers) The caller can shout one of three things: 1 - "Hunter" If hunter is shouted then all the squirrels run to a new 'tree' the 'caller' then tries to steal the place of a squirrel. If they are successful then the person left without a tree becomes the new 'caller' (*The trees do not move) 2 - "Fire" If fire is shouted the trees move to a new squirrel, they must find a new partner to create a tree over a squirrel. The 'caller' then tries to steal the place of a tree leaving someone new out and they become the new 'caller'. 3 - "Earthquake" If this is shouted then everyone moves and takes a new position as either a tree or a squirrel. Again the 'caller' steals someone's place and a new 'caller' is made.

Concentration (Categories)
Set the rhythm in a circle: slap thighs twice, clap twice, snap right, snap left. Once the beat is locked in, the leader chants "Concentration… category is… fruits!" and on each following snap-snap, the next player around the circle must name a fruit exactly on the beat. Repeat an answer, miss the rhythm, or blank out and you're out — and the survivor picks the next category. Movies, capital cities, cereal brands: the beat turns easy trivia into pressure.
