Summary:
As a team, untangle yourselves to form a full circle again.
Goal:
Work together to become a circle
again.
How to Play The Human Knot Game:
1.
Arrange everyone to be in a large circle. When you say “go”,
everyone needs to join hands with another person across the
circle.
2.
The object of the game is to work together to untangle
everyone to become a large circle. Everyone’s hands must be
joined with the other person at all times. This may require
some outside help/consulting and coordination, as well as a
bit of climbing, etc. This game requires people to be close
to each other.
*Note of caution: This game requires
people to be in close proximity with each other- be sure
that everyone is okay with being close to one another.
Variation:
- If the group is unable to fully untangle themselves after
10 or 15 minutes, let one person unlink and rejoin their
hand with someone else’s (the other two people need to join
hands). The group can strategize and decide who they’d like
to unlink/rejoin.
