  2. Hot and Cold

    Share Share Post
    For a game of hot and cold a number stand along a wall. One is picked and the picked player gets a piece of chalk or something and shows it to the others who then close their eyes. He or she hides the selected thing. When it was hidden he or she calls over the others and tells them to look for it. When some of them goes near it he says "Hot" but it they are not near it he says "Cold" The one who finds "jewel" hides it next.
