Moos and oinks fill the air as players race to find their fellow animals in this hilariously noisy menagerie matchup.


Great for: All ages


Number of players: 6 or more

What You Need
  • Index cards
  • Pen or marker
Instructions
  1. Choose one person to be the farmer. Her job is to think of two to four types of farm animals, then whisper one to each player. (To help younger kids remember their assignments, write or draw the animals on index cards.)

  2. At "Go," each player belts out his or her animal's sound (a goat's bleat or a chicken's squawk, for example) and runs to find other players making the same noise. The first group to herd itself together and sit down wins.

Variations:
After a few rounds, mix it up with animals found in a zoo, jungle, or pet shop so that players can make different sounds.
