Each player receives a slip of paper and pencil. The leader begins by
saying: "Guess how high the door is." "Guess how thick that book is."
"Guess how tall Mr. Blank is." "How far does this chair stand from
the floor,"

He allows a few seconds after each question for the players to write
their answers. After twenty or more guesses have been asked, the
papers are passed to the right hand neighbor for correction.

The leader then measures each article, person, or thing, with a tape
measure, and the guesses on the lists are checked off. The person who
has a correct list deserves something for a reward.




Next: NUT RACE.
