Blow Wind Blow

Relaxing games, Icebreaker games


For this icebreaker game you'll need to set up your chairs in a circle facing inwards. Make sure there is one less chair than there are players.

Select one player to start off in the middle. They must begin by calling out "Blow wind blow". The rest of the group must respond "blow what?" Then the middle player can say some kind of conditional statement like "everyone with red hair" or "everyone not wearing shoes". All the players that fit into that category must get up and switch chairs with another player. This allows a chance for the middle player to steal a chair also. Once everyone has finished switching as quickly as possible, there will be one player left stuck in the middle. Then the process repeats!

This is a really great way to split people up into teams/groups...

We do it at large camps quite a bit, except for the last call we say "all the leaders'- so you have all the leaders standing in the middle...

You then go around the circle and number the kids of- eg all number ones are one group, number twos another etc...

Makes it very difficult for the kids to pick groups/teams with all their friends in it...

I've played this game before in Group Sessions. Instead of saying "Blow Wind Blow" we would say "Any which way the wind blows" Then we would ask a question. It's a really fun game! I enjoyed the game and so did the children.
