The Come To Me Exercise

Come to Me is a fun and exciting partner exercise that builds trust in the group and sharpens people’s listening skills.

Divide your group into pairs. Instruct everyone to scatter evenly across the area with plenty of space between partnerships, standing at least 10 metres (33′) away from their partner.

One partner moves approx 10 metres away (in full view) of their partner. To start, the partner who did not move will close their eyes or put on a blindfold and call “COME TO ME.”

The goal of the sighted person is to quietly and slowly approach to touch the shoulder of his ‘blind’ partner in a period of no more than sixty seconds without being detected. The ‘blind’ person is entitled to point five times in the direction of where they think their partner is lurking.

If the sighted person is successfully detected, or the ‘blind’ partner is tapped on their shoulder, the round is over, and the pair swap roles.

Play several rounds, swapping roles each time.

Moment of Reflection
  • How did it feel to sneak up to someone who could not see you? Why?
  • How did it feel to be the blindfolded person knowing someone was trying to sneak up to you? Why?
  • What was the biggest challenge for you in this exercise?
  • How easy was it to filter out all of the other distractions and focus on your goal?
  • What might these observations about focus say to our group?
