Tails Game - great for brownies
>> Wednesday, August 24, 2016
You need:
As many tails as you have brownies (I cut material into 5cm by 25cm (ish) strips)
Lots of counters (at least 4 per girl)
one box for all the containers at the start
four empty containers (if you have four teams)
Each girl tucks a tail into their trousers making sure quite a bit is showing.
Put a chair beside each team with an empty containers on it.
a Guider or Young Leader takes the full box of counters to the other end of the hall and holds onto it.
Girls race in relay fashion run up to leader with the box of containers and take a counter, run back to their team and place it in the container on their team’s chair. When the counter is in the box the next girl goes.
Continue until the girls are exhausted or you run out of counters.
Once the game has ended you can get them to add up the scores, in their own container:
2 points for each tail snatched
But they also get:
5 extra points for each girl that kept her own tail.
Once they have played it once and seen the scoring work they really start to 'get it' so second time around they get a lot more competitive about their tails!
