Number of People: 5 to infinity

Description: Have your participants line-up shoulder to shoulder. I address the group saying, "From this point forward you've lost the power of speech. I want you to think of your favorite animal. Once you've thought of it place your hand on your head." Once they're ready, issue the challenge. "Line yourselves up in order from smallest animal to largest animal. The only sound you can make is the sound your favorite animal makes." Someone invariably picks an animal that doesn't make a sound or makes very little sound. It's great to see their faces. Pretty quickly the room fills with the sounds of the jungle.
