Eyes and Feet

OBJECT - Guess who's behind the sheet.

GAME TYPE - Observation game.

WHO'S IT FOR - Group One. Three or more people can play this game, but it's more fun and much harder if there's more.

WHAT YOU NEED - A sheet with a hole for the eyes cut out. The hole shouldn't be too high on the sheet, but high enough so the shortest player can look through them.

HOW TO PLAY:
  1. Hang your prepared sheet up in a doorway. Make sure you can't see around it.
  2. Choose one player to be IT. All other players go to the other side of the sheet.
  3. One at a time, a player comes up to the sheet and puts their eyes to the eye hole.
  4. IT must decide who the eyes in the eyehole belong to.
  5. Have every player look through the eyehole, and have IT decide who belongs to each pair.
  6. Once IT has seen all the eyes, choose another IT. They go through the same process.
  7. The winner is the player who identified the most eyes correctly.

As a variation, and the reason this game is called Eyes and Feet, you can raise the sheet high enough so only the player's feet are visible, and have IT identify them that way.

THIS WORKS ON - Observational skills (noticing attributes that belong to others), matching (matching eyes or feet to other players)
