Youth Ministry Games : Traffic Light

1. Traffic Light Submitted by: Glen Geurin on March 8, 1998
Materials: nine paper plates
Messy Rating: No Sweat Duration: 5-20 minutes Cost: $0.00

Put a person on eight of the plates, leaving the middle one open. Have each group of four face the other group of four, staying in a straight line. Tell them that they have to move the whole group to the opposite side , where the other group of four is standing. One catch, no one can go backwards and no one can jump a person facing the same way they are and they can only jump one person from the other side at a time. If they feel they may have messed up, have them start all over again, from the top. If you feel one or more have caught on to it too quickly, then handicap them by having them not be able to speak. It can be done and can take forever, but you really see who the leaders of the pack are and who are the thinkers and who the followers are. Try it on paper first so you know how to do it. Any questions, just e-mail me. Happy to explain better.
Debriefing this game works well with having each person talk about what they observed from it and how they felt during it.
