CHALLENGE OF THE DAY:

HUCKLE BUCKLE BEANSTALK!

 

Before You Start 

Identify an object, such as a bean bag, small ball or cup, to the group. 

Share the special words huckle buckle beanstalk and have everyone repeat it back to you. Until the group can recall and say huckle buckle beanstalk. 

Demonstrate how to move around the room observing, but not touching.  

You may want to encourage players to continue looking for five to ten more seconds after they’ve found the object so that it’s harder for others to know where the object was found. 

How to Play 

Have all players sit in their seats with their heads down and eyes covered. 

Hide the object in plain sight. 

When you say so, players may open their eyes and quietly walk around the room looking for the object with their hands behind their back. 

When a player finds the object, she/he must sit back down and say huckle buckle beanstalk without letting others know where the object is. 

Continue playing until everyone has found the object.
