Some short movies of different games based on co-operation and fun.

People form a circle and can link hands across the circle, or by placing hands randomly on top of each other, this can be done with quite a few people. It is nearly always possible to untangle, but requires a lot of thought, teamwork and co-operation.

Groups in circles must count up or down without using a pattern or signalling to each other. They can, as in the movie do it backwards and with their eyes closed!

A fun game for laughing together. Everyone sitting in a circle, a volunteer must go up to someone and say ‘I love you so give me a smile’, the person must respond by saying ‘I am sorry I just don’t love you’ . If you smile or laught whilst saying that then you replace the person in the middle.
