    Serves: 15 Players

    Cook Time: 20 min

    Ingredients

    10 - 20 Players

    Instructions

    • Players are broken into groups of 3 to 5
    • Instructor stands/sits in middle of room evenly distant from each group that is stationed in the corners of the room/space.
    • Instructor is holding cards with well known or reviewed fairytales.
    • One player from each group runs up and looks at the card and begins ‘acting out’ the fairytale until their group guesses.
    • Once a group guesses the fairytale the player runs back to the Instructor and grabs the card, returns to their group and a new player begins the whole process again.

    Notes

    Players cannot communicate in any other way other than physical, no mouthing words. Players must return to their group before acting out the fairytale, no stopping half way to group in order to eliminate distance to retrieve card from Instructor.
