Grandma’s Footsteps

 

Your real Grandma is likely to know this one.  A classic sneaking game

One player is ‘grandma’ and stands with their back to the rest. Everyone else starts trying to creep up on grandma, freezing when she turns around suddenly. If grandma catches anyone moving she can send them to the start. Mix it up with some dress up and you’ve got yourself a blast.
