Electric Pulse
1. Ha, Ha
This game is fun for any age.
• Begin by having all the players sit in a circle.
• Tell all of the players they have to remain as solemn and serious as they can throughout the
game.
• Pick one player to start the game, saying “Ha” once.
• The player standing next to him says the word “Ha” twice.
• Following this pattern, the third player says “Ha” three times.
• As the game progresses, eliminate any players who laugh or make noise when it is not their turn.
The player who avoids laughing throughout the game wins.
2. Electric Pulse [Team Coordination, Attention, Promptness]
The name of this game comes from the two long lines of players resembling electric pulsing.
• Form two teams using whatever method you prefer. Have the two teams form lines facing each
other.
•Instruct the teams to hold hands forming two long human chains.
• A referee stands at the end of the lines, facing the chain.
• Tell everyone in the lines to close their eyes and face downward.
• The referee then flips a coin and quietly shows it to the first players on each team.
• If the coin is heads, the two people at the front of the lines squeeze the hand of the next person in
line as quickly as possible.
• Each person, whose hand is squeezed, squeezes the person’s hand next to him or her.
• The goal is to be the team with the “electric pulse” passing all away along the line first.
• The team that does so wins a point.
• If the team makes a mistake and tails was actually the result of the toss, they lose a point.
•Ten points for a short game works well.
3. Talking in Circles
This is a highly challenging game
•Place everyone in a circle around a long piece of string that is tied at its ends to form a circle.
Have everyone grasp the string with both hands and hold the string waist high.
• Without letting go, the team will have to form shapes with the string; a square, a triangle, a figure
eight, a rectangle, etc.
• Repeat the game but with everyone’s eyes shut! This will require everyone to communicate
clearly and listen well.
• Make the shapes progressively harder and periodically have them stop and open their eyes to see
their progress…or lack there of.
