Quiet game

Quiet game

The quiet game is a children's game where children must stay quiet and still. The first child or team to make a noise loses the game. One application of the game is as a way some parents keep their loud children quiet for a long journey. [ [http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A397398 Things to keep children amused on long journeys] .
