So, you make a grid on paper, I think it might be 5x4. You put one piece of candy in each square. You have someone leave the room. Decide which one is Pete, but don't tell the person in the other room. Have the person come back and start eating, one by one. When they eat Pete everyone yells, "Don't eat Pete!" and their turn is over. The point is to see how many you can eat before you eat Pete.
We play with a grid with pictures printed in each box: animals or people or whatever.
When we play 'Don't Eat the Prophet', there are (obviously) pictures of prophets printed in each box. Then we'll yell out, "Don't eat Gordon B. Hinckley", or whoever was picked to be "Pete". It helped the kids identify the prophets.
It's a silly game, that is actually quite fun. We haven't played it in a while. Thanks for the reminder, Chick!
Hello, my name is Shauna. I photograph everything and everyone. I was formally educated in zoology as a wildlife biologist and ecologist but my current full-time occupation has me doing laundry, washing dishes, playing at the park, scrubbing toilets, cooking meals and packing lunches, kissing owies, helping with homework, building Lego castles, balancing the budget, mowing the lawn, planning picnics, cleaning up vomit, volunteering for the PTA, and booking the occasional vacation.

Whst kind of game is "Don't Eat Pete!"
We love "Don't Eat Pete"!
Sometimes we like to change it to "Don't Eat the Prophet".
Can you explain it to me?
