String Mania Game

Materials:
2 2-foot long strings

Directions:
Tie a girl's wrists together with string leaving about one and a half foot slack. then do the same with a boy's wrist, except that the string of the girls is placed between the boy's string and his body (i.e. they are hooked together). the object is for both of them to separate by funny combinations of stepping through the rope, putting their heads through, etc.

However, there is no way they can do it by trying to thread limbs. When they are thoroughly entangled, show them how simple it can be done. Have the guy take the loop of his string that is on the girls side and pass it through the one that ties her left wrist, then loop it over the girl's hand and they will be free. Practice with leaders first.
