Items Needed
- None (just the group and their creativity!)

Instructions
- The leader (the adult volunteer or one Scout chosen as leader) gives directions for the Scouts to follow.
- Scouts should only follow directions that begin with the words “Simon Says.”
- If a Scout follows a direction that doesn’t start with “Simon Says,” they are out.
- Continue giving directions until only one Scout remains. The last Scout is the winner.
- If Scouts are chosen as leader, replay until all have the chance to lead.
