First by counting out loud. Then silent and not necessarily straight forward and back. But do choose and easy pattern, so you are able to move backwards withourt crashing into other persons.

"Tsseu - Bonk - Tju Tju":

Standing in a circle a sound is send around from person to person - e.g. "Tsseu", "Piiii" or "Oooooh".
A person can stop the sound and send it back by raising the hands while saying "bonk".
A person can avoid the sound by kneeling down while saying "Tju-Tju". Then the sound passes on to the next in the circle.
If the sound is blocked on both sides of a person in the circle, then it is possible to send it to someone on the other side (diagonal or so)
