Pick Up Sticks
When we first arrive at our campground, everyone has to find 10 12inch tree branch's in our surrounding area of our campsite. They then must be "cleaned" of any other branches or leaves attached to them.
After everyone has there sticks, made certain that they are "no more" than 12" (a foot) in length, we all sit around in a circle with each other and play the game!
It starts with one person finding an object in our surrounding area and without telling what it is says "I see something (can only give the color, size, shape etc. but cannot say what or where it is)
The first person that guesses what it is gets to put one of their "sticks" down in the center of the circle.
Then they get to say "I see...." and so the next person who guess's the answer gets to put their stick into the center and puts it on top of the other stick only, if the stack falls down, the person that made it fall is out of the game, and so it goes on this way until someone ends up with no sticks!
Whoever ends up with "no sticks" wins!
It is fun to stack the sticks as high as they can go without them falling!
It is a fun game to not only notice more about your environment, challenge your abilities, but also makes for great bonfire fun in the evening.
