Turn the Circle Inside Out

Turn the Circle Inside Out has been played in Girl Guiding circles since my mother was a Guide [1940s] and before as her mother was also a Guide.

• A circle is formed using all the players.
•  Everyone joins hands and faces the middle of the circle.
•  Everyone closes their eyes and tries to turn the circle inside out so that everyone is facing the opposite direction (outside of the circle) without letting go of each others' hands.

(Hint: the solution is that two players hold up their hands and everyone else follows through underneath.)
