Campfire Hot Seat

What you need

• Nothing - just seats around the fire

How to play

1. 1.One person sits in the "hot seat" - the chair closest to the fire, or just a designated spot.
2. 2.The group takes turns asking questions. The hot seat must answer immediately - no pausing to think.
3. 3.Keep questions light and camp-flavored: "Best thing about today?", "What would your camp name be?", "What scared you as a kid?", "Tent or hammock?"
4. 4.After five questions, the hot-seat player picks the next person.
5. 5.No skipping questions. If the answer is "I don't know," that counts - the group decides if it's valid.

Variations

• Would you rather: every question is a would-you-rather. ("Eat only trail mix for a week, or sleep in the rain every night?")
• Theme rounds: all questions must be about camping, food, or childhood memories.
• All-in: everyone answers the same question simultaneously - call it out on three.

Safety notes

• Keep questions inclusive and appropriate for the youngest player present.
