In the egypt game what did ken and toby believe about talking to girlsBefore he started talking, he looked around quickly to be sure no one who mattered was looking.

Yup, this is the cooties stage of things. Toby and Ken want to join in the Egypt Game, but it would be social suicide to be caught talking to girls at school. First, it would be so out-of-character—not to mention probably get them teased by the rest of the class. When you're eleven, that's about as bad as it gets.
