leader who begins an action that everyone
else in the youth group imitates

Optimal Youth Group Size for Game
10-20 people but it can be played with less or
more. For very large groups you may wish to split
the youth group up into multiple circles.

Game Venue
This youth game can be played in any open area,
indoors or outdoors
Game Preparation
Set up the game by getting everyone in the youth
group to stand in a circle facing inwards.

Game Play
1. Ask one of the youth to leave the room for a minute.
This youth will be “it” or the person who will try to
identify the leader.
2. While he or she is out of the room, the rest of the
group decides who will be the “leader.” The leader
will be the youth who initiates the movements for
that round of the game.

3. When the leader has been chosen, invite the
youth who left the room back to stand in the
center of the circle.
4. Each round begins with all the youth in the
circle swinging their arms up and down.

5. The leader will initiate other movements, which
the rest of the youth must copy. They must be
careful to copy the leader without revealing who
the leader is. They should not stare at the leader
or identify the leader in any way.
6. The leader can do just about anything he or she
wants. The more crazy the action, the more fun!

7. Here are some basic ideas: clapping, making a funny
face, doing a karate kick, stamping a foot, act like a
monkey, jump up and down, spin in place, pat his or
her head, rub his or her belly, do a dance move, cross
arms, pick his or her nose, etc.

8. The person in the center of the circle is allowed to make up to
three guesses. If a guess is incorrect, the round continues. If
the guess is correct, the leader takes the center position for
the next round and must leave the room while a new leader is
chosen from among the remaining youth. If all three guesses
are used up and the leader is not correctly guessed, you can
have the person in the center do a forfeit then select a new
leader.

Take it to the Next Level
Leaders set the example for followers.
Game Debrief
• In what ways do the actions of leaders set examples for
others to follow?
• What are some of the actions a leader should do to set an
example for followers?
• What are some of the characteristics that identify a person
as a leader?

• What are the qualities that are essential to leadership?
• Who are some of the leaders in your life? What
characteristics made them stand out as leaders?
• What are some of the qualities of bad leaders? How can
we avoid them?
• Should we always blindly follow a person as a leader?
• What are some different types of leaders?
• Do leaders in different positions need to have different
qualities? Explain.

Game Application
We are all called to be leaders. There will always be
someone who looks up to us, who follows our
example. As leaders, how can we set better
examples for others? What is an area where you
need to rise to the challenge of being a leader?

Bible Studies based on the book of Jonah
Only. This youth camp curriculum was
designed to teach the basic truths
of obedience in addition to evangelism in the
context of a Biblical character. The advantage
of going through a book and looking at one
man's story is that we see not only the
teaching but the example. It becomes much
more real!

-> Tell me about “Who Do You Say that I AM?”
Jesus asked the disciples, "Who do others
say that I am?" It was easy to answer
because it required no conviction, no
commitment, and no risk. But then he
follows that question with another, "Who
do YOU say that I am?"
