Beaver Scout Games: Hunt the Thimble

Beaver Scout Games

Welcome to my blog for simple games to play with young groups like Beavers and Cubs. If you are planning a childrens party then this may be a useful source of information for cheap simple and fun ideas.

All people love to play games. At Beavers we play games outside when the weather permits so I have listed games suitable for such occassions. We meet on a Thursday evening so for half of the year we cannot go outside as it's too dark. Therefore we also have loads games for the inside as well.

I have categorisd the games into their most approriate section. However, most games can be adapted for most situations.

If you have any party game ideas then please forward them to me and I will try then out at my Colony and add them to the list.

Most importantly have fun!

This is a very old classic game, but it still works and is great fun for small children

Any number

You Will Need
A thimble or any other small object

How To Play
All the children except one leave the room. The child left hides the thimble in the room. The others return and 'hunt the thimble'. Whoever finds the thimble has the next turn of hiding the thimble.
