The Spider Web Game
list of games | next game

Sent in by Ian M. of Arlington, MA

Be a webmaster and untangle yourself from the web.

To set up the game, get different colored balls of yarn for each player. Then, tie the end of each ball of yarn to a different piece of furniture and wind the yarn through obstacles, like under chairs and around the legs of a table.

Make it look like a spider web by overlapping the different colors of yarn. If you're having a party, you might want to set up your spider web before your guests arrive.

All the balls of yarn should meet at the end; this is the players' starting point.

Each player takes the loose end of their yarn and makes their way through the web, rewinding their ball of yarn.

The first player to untangle their yarn from the web wins.
