If you looking for a fun game to play in a wooded area—or on a campout—try Walking Sticks. Invite each of the teenagers to find a walking stick in the woods—and then tell the group why he/she chose that particular stick. What were the qualities that drew attention, etc?

Then, after each teenager has related a bit about each stick, take a hike, with the person in front saying to the group, “Walk this way!” This front leader must then use the stick and walk in a certain manner—with others in the group following the pattern.
