FRUIT BASKET

 

Fruit Basket is a variation to "Musical Chairs". The tribe stands in a tight circle with one person in the middle. Starting with one person in the circle, each person is assigned a fruit; apple, orange, or banana. (person #1 is apple, person #2 is orange, person #3 is banana, person #4 is apple, person #5 is orange, etc.)

The object of the game is for the person in the middle to call out a fruit. Those members assigned to that particular fruit, must then trade places with other members of the same fruit before the person in the middle occupies one of the vacated spaces.

If the person in the middle succeeds, he becomes that fruit and the person left standing in the middle becomes the new contestant. If he fails, the person in the middle calls out a new fruit and the process is repeated. A fun way to end the game is to call out all three fruits, so that the tribe scrambles in mass confusion.
