Thief Game

Thief Game is one of the fun outdoor kids games, perfect for birthday party games for kids.

5 or more players
Ages 5 and up
Need: bandanna or scarf, candy, pennies, marbles, small toys

An adult or older child is the leader and blindfolds one player. She sits on the floor and gets a rolled up newspaper so she can guard her treasure pile placed in front of her.

The other players form a circle around the blindfolded player. One by one, each player tries to quietly steal things from the treasure pile without being tagged.

If the blindfolded player hears someone trying to take her stash, she calls out,"thief, thief" and has to tag that player with the newspaper. She has to remain seated.

If the player gets tagged, he must put his treasure back in the pile. If he's not tagged, he gets to keep what he got.

The winner is the person who has the most goodies. But, if the blindfolded player has tagged all the players, she wins.
