Line up blind

3.5 shiney stars

Very similar to Line Up, this game involves lining up in a given order, but with a twist. 

Cover everyone's eyes with a handkerchief or blindfold. Once everyone's eyes are covered, announce to the group they have to organize themselves into a line in order of surname (alphabetically). Sounds simple but it is a good way to get people to understand the difficulties associated with not being able to rely on sight to communicate.

You could also try variations such as lining up in order of height, age, etc

This was a nice game. I have done this with a study about understanding each other. It helped a lot.

We've tried it on our fellowship and I must say that it's good! I have fun mingling around with people that I don't know.
