Object of the Game: Find the other people making your animal sound.
Items Needed:
Blind folds for all the participants.
Preparation: Place a blind fold on each person, then tell them which animal sound they are to make.

Directions: Choose three or more different animal sounds and randomly pick people to make one of the sounds. Even divide the sounds among all players. When everyone's blind folded and knows their sound have them start making their animal sound. The players should try to find the others making their same sound and move towards them until all people have grouped off.

Example: There are 12 people playing and you choose a dog barking, a horse neighing, and a cow mooing. All twelve are blind folded and secretly four people are give the barking sound, four more the horse neighing, and the last four the cow mooing. When ready everyone starts making their animal sounds. As they make their sound they are to listen for others making their same sounds and group together. When everyone's found their animal group they can stop and take their blind folds off.

Note: The only object of this game is to have fun, but you could use it as an object lesson about listening to the Holy Ghost.
