Title: Centipede
Summary:

The facilitator tells the participants to stay in a line one person behind the other. They were transformed into a centipede and they are one body now. For the entire activity they will have to keep their eyes closed and they are not allowed to talk. The centipede will need to pick up 3 balls that the facilitator will place in the room. One volunteer will be placed in front and one in the end. The one in front has to pick up the ball with his eyes closed but he is the only one who can talk, and the participant in the back will have open eyes and will have to 'drive' the centipede to the balls. The facilitator gives a few minutes to figure out a strategy on how to do it (the facilitator can give some tips, a signal how to turn left/right, how to stop). Two centipedes can be made and play at the same time for a more competitive game. It would be advisable to use acoustic balls the help participants with visual impairment and also to signal to the facilitaotr when one ball was picked up.
