Objective

To form groups based on the number called by the game leader. 

Set-Up

No set up is required

Directions

The game leader calls out a number that is less than the number of players, and everyone playing scrambles to get into groups of that number.  Quickly, the leader calls another number to form another size of groups, and continues rapidly as players scramble.

 

Level-up – The leader tells players that every new combination must not include players from previous combinations.

The leader asks people to find others with similar characteristics such as:

  • Find everyone who has the same birthday month.
  • Find everyone who has the same eye color.
  • Find everyone who has the same last digit in their parent’s phone number.
