A large circle is drawn on the ground and the leader places sticks and stones on it, each one named after a prominent landmark in the area (or perhaps a constellation from a space-map). After studying the arrangement of the objects, the players turn their backs on the circle. The first player names an object on the line and continues to name objects in order until he or she makes a mistake. Then another player tries.
The first player to correctly name all the objects has the honor of arranging the pieces for the next game. If they all fail, the leader rearranges the objects and they try again.
You can have as little or as many objects to identify within the circle as you like. You could use place names from around your town, or locations within the your house, or just about any location that you can think of.
