Knot
A great active game for teens that takes 10 minutes and requires no props is "Human Knot." It's a fun and engaging activity that encourages teamwork, communication, and problem-solving.
How to Play:
Gather the Group: Get a group of 6-12 teens. Everyone stands in a circle, shoulder to shoulder.
Form the Knot: Everyone reaches out with their right hand and grabs someone else's right hand across the circle. Then, they do the same with their left hand, but grabbing a different person's left hand.
The Goal: The group must work together to untangle themselves without letting go of anyone’s hands. They can twist, turn, and step over or under each other to unravel the knot.
Time Limit: Set a 10-minute time limit to complete the task. If they don't finish by then, you can challenge them to try again next time to improve.
Why It Works:
It's quick and requires no equipment
