Here’s an idea

In small groups crouch in the corner of the room and have the others/leaders block you in with various objects. Once complete try to escape without knocking anything over, squeezing through small gaps. Alternatively, create a web of string with bells on and squeeze yourself through the gaps without making the bells ring.
