SOUNDS
IN THE NIGHT: Late at night, animal sounds drift
into the darkened house; dogs howl, crickets chirp,
cats cry, owls hoot, etc. In
this game, the animals are indoors and play a noisy
game of ball.
Have everyone sit in circle with their
eyes closed. The
room is darkened. Each
player selects an animal sound to mimic as his/her
own personal signal. If
group members run out of animals from which to choose,
divide players into separate groups. The
first player makes his/her sound and then the sound
of the animal to whom they want to roll the ball. The
animal who is “called” replies so the first player
knows where to direct the ball. The
first player then rolls the ball. If
the intended player receives the ball, they respond
loudly. All
the other animals rejoice in unison by making their
sounds as well. However,
if the intended player misses, the ball goes back
to the first player to try another animal.
