Let the crowd break up and seat themselves about the room.
Send someone out of the room. Give to any member of the group a
“musical peanut,” which is of course an ordinary peanut. Explain to the
group that when the searcher enters, all must sing some popular song,
at first very softly, and then more loudly as the searcher wanders in
the vicinity of the musical peanut. The searcher is then invited in
and, guided by the song of the group, tries to find the peanut. When
the peanut is found, the person holding the musical peanut becomes the
searcher.
