Mine Field
Learning the advantages of teamwork and partnership goes a long way in becoming a leader. Begin the game by setting up an obstacle course in the play area. Divide the group into pairs, blindfolding one person for every pair. On the count of three, the blindfolded person must head to the finish line at the opposite side of the area while his partner gives him instructions from behind the starting point. If the player does hit upon an obstacle, she has to head back to the starting point and begin again as you time the pair. After every pair takes a turn going through the obstacle course, the partners with the best time win the game.
Hunt for Candy
To see how leaders respond to communication from peers, play this game. Prepare for the game by hiding packets of candy around the room or play area. Divide the group into teams of three or more people. The team picks a leader and then decides on an animal with a distinct noise (cows, sheep, horses). Separate the leaders and blindfold them. When you say "Go," the rest of the players have to find the candies. When team members find a packet, they must use their animal noise to bring the leader to the area with the candy. The leader picks up the candy once he locates it. The team with the most candies wins the game.
Line Up
See who comes out a leader with this game. To play the game, you need at least one log; more, if you want to give the game a competitive aspect. Tell all of the players to get onto the log. Explain to them that they have to line themselves up as fast as they can in a specific order. For example, you can use height, weight or birthday. However, the team cannot get off the log at any time to do this. If you have two or more teams, see which team completes the task fastest in the correct order.
