Smarties work well too - a tube of Smarties is a country's population - just take out the colours you don't need and put them in a pot for the 'winner'? |

Activities |
|
Get into a group of six people. |
You each represent a different country. Give your country a name. Number the countries from 1 to 6. |
Divide the sweets up randomly between the group so that each person has the same number of sweets. Leave at least twelve in the central dish. DO NOT EAT ANY OF THE SWEETS - THEY ARE YOUR POPULATION. |
The sweets represent your population. Make a note of your population structure. |
Blue - Male Adults |
Orange - Female Adults |
Red - Male Children |
Yellow - Female Children |
Green - People aged over 65 |
Pink - Ethnic Minorities |
Shuffle the chance cards  and put them in the middle of the table. |
| Each country takes it in turn to take a card from the top of the pile. You must carry out whatever instructions are on the cards. If you lose any of your population DO NOT EAT THEM! Put them back into the central dish. |
You will be told when the game ends. |
 |
Review |
After you have finished the game and have completed your worksheets consider the following questions as a class?
Who do you think won? What makes them the winning country? Is it the country with the highest population or the most balanced population structure? |
