Who will find her on the trail ?
Data
age: 10+
number of participants: 9+
place: field, forest
leader: 1
game duration: 30-40minutes
Materials
- red paint - e.g. watercolour or other, pre-dissolved
- bottle
- plastic or rubber chicken
Preparation
Place the dissolved paint in a bottle with a pierced cap.
There are two roles in the game - fox and owner. The role of the fox has fewer participants, for example 4. They ''kidnap'' and hide the hen, leaving traces with the paint. In the role of the owner are all the other players who are looking for the hen.
The course of the game
Four people have to hide the hen, during this time the others wait 7 to 10 minutes without looking. The four are required to mark the path to the hen with paint marks. At a distance of 10 m before the place of the hidden hen a cross is made with the paint. In this way, the other players first look for the cross, and when they find it, they know that the hen is within a 10 m radius.
End of game
When the chicken is found.
Note
You are allowed to make a false path with the paint.
