Material
If possible, something to cover the children's eyes (cloth, scarf, ...) so that they can't see anything! Even if it is possible to play outside, a clear boundary of the playing field is necessary (e.g. barrier tape).
Preparation
No preparation is necessary for this game.
Game procedure
* Everyone is blindfolded.
* The game leader pats someone on the back. This person is -Piip- during the game.
* Now everyone walks around. No talking is allowed and it should be very quiet. When two people touch each other, they say "piip". Only -Piip- remains silent. So if -Piip- comes across someone, says "piip" and receives no response, he shakes hands with -Piip- and from then on also remains silent.
End of the game
The game ends as soon as everyone shakes hands. If the players have not listened carefully, there may be several "human chains".
