Quickies & Fillers
Ah soh koh
Everyone sits in a circle, and learns the 3 commands and their movements.
1) Ah – the person says “Ah” loudly, and takes their
left or right arm across their chest, pointing at the person next to
them
2) Soh - the person says “Soh” loudly, and takes their left
or right arm above their head, pointing at the person next to them
3) Koh – the person puts both arms together in front of them and
point to someone else, anywhere in the circle.
The phrases must always go in that order, and each phrase needs its
correct hand motion. You go when you are pointed at by someone next
to you using “ah” or “soh,” or by someone across
from you using “koh.” When you are “koh”ed at
by someone you can either start again with “Ah” or put your
hands up and say “nooooooo.” If you say “noooooooo”
then the person who said “koh” has to start again with “Ah.”
If you mess up, you step out of the circle and walk around the outside
trying to confuse people by shouting random words.
Scream Machine
Everyone stands in a tight circle, with their heads down looking at
their shoes. When ‘Heads Up’ is called, everyone looks up
and stares at someone else in the circle. If that person is staring
right back at you, then you scream real load and jump back out of the
circle. If the person you’re looking at is not looking at you,
but your head back down and wait for the next round. Keep going until
there are two winners.
The Hand Game
Great game - a camp classic! Bear with the long description, it's worth
it!Everyone must either lie on their stomachs with their hands in front
of them or sit at table with their hands in front of them, in a circle.
Either way, have your hands ready to slap a flat surface. Once everyone
places their hands directly on the table or ground in front of them,
move your right hand in between the person to your right's hands. This
create an alternating hand pattern.
So, looking down onto the group the hands would look like this:(From
left to right) My LEFT hand, then the person on my left's RIGHT hand,
then the person on my right's LEFT hand, then my RIGHT hand, and so
on. Although it is hard to describe, it's a really simple set-up...To
start, one person calls out the tapping direction, either Left or Right,
and starts slaps their hand once on the ground/table. The hand closest
to the first slap, in the named direction, slaps the hand, then the
next closest, and so on.If hand A slaps, hand B can either single slap
or double slap. A single slap keeps the slap going in the correct direction,
a double slap sends the slap in the opposite direction.If someone slaps
out of turn, they must remove that hand. All other hands stay where
they are. When both hands are out, that person is out of the game. The
game is over when there are two people left.Try and go faster as the
game progresses. If you make a mistake, then you leave the circle.
Snake’s Tail
The group will line up single file and place their hands on the shoulders
of the person in front of them. On the word "GO" the person
in the front of the line tries to catch the person at the back of the
line. The line cannot come apart. Rotate the group from front to back
or back to front for each round of play.Once the group has caught their
own tail once or twice, have them try to catch the tail of a different
"snake."
Butt Wars
Stand with a partner back-to-back. Now try to knock the other off balance
with your butt, as they do the same to you.
