INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Everyone puts their heads down (or closes eyes) and puts one thumb up.

2. A staff member or a selected player moves around the room, touching seven thumbs and then calls, “Heads up, seven up!” or “Heads up, stand up!”

3. All players raise their heads (open eyes) and the seven players whose thumbs were touched stand up.

4. Now all the players except for those standing put their heads down. The seven standing players move through the group touching one seated person's thumb each.

5. Once they have touched a thumb the seven standing players move to the front of the room.

6. This time when the leader calls, “Heads up. Seven up!” those who had their thumb touched stand and try to guess which player touched their thumb.

7. If the player correctly guesses who touched their thumb, they switch places with that person at the front of the room.

8. Now the seven players, some new and some not, take a turn touching thumbs while heads are down.
