How to play the Tour Guide party game
The children are paired up and one child is blindfolded. The other child is the tour guide and has to guide the blindfolded child to the goal line using their voice. If the children are younger, you could have them guide with touch as well. After the first child gets to the goal line, then they switch places and the guide becomes the guided. If you do not have much space, you could have each pair go one at a time. If it is a nice day, you could also have them play outside and create their own paths.
For older children, you can create a course with obstacles and the guide will have to make the blind child go through all the steps of this course. Adapt the number of obstacles and their difficulty according to the age of the participants.
