Previous Games of The Month
Who Am I?
Required: Name tags
Players: Small to large groups
Category: Icebreaker Games |
|
Pre-make tags with each tag having one famous person on it, mainly divas that everyone would know. These tags will be placed on the back of each guest as they arrive. This is done without them knowing who they are. They are to go around the room asking questions as to who they might be. Questions like “am I a singer?” They can only ask one question and make only one guess as to Who they are with each person that they talk to, then they have to move on to another person. They can
come visit previous players once they've visited another player. |
Pumpkin Race (same as Four Leaf Clover Race)
Required: Cut out two 5 inch paper pumkins for each team
Players: Small to large groups
Category: Relay Games |
|
Set up teams with first person on each team holding 2 paper pumkins. On “go” they are to place the pumkins in front of them to step across course. When they step to the second one,
they are to pick up the first one while standing on one foot. Once they pick up the first one they place that one in front and step on it. The object is to go across the course stepping on only the pumkins without
stepping on the floor. If they step on the floor they must return to the starting line and start again. You can use different variations of this game. You could line a gym up with everyone holding pumkins and the
first one across is the winner. This also could be varied for the time of the year, Valentines, Crosses for Easter, Bunnies, or Spring Flowers. |
Fork Over The Chocolate
Required: Chocolate bar, knife, forks, pair of large gloves, clothing
Players: Small to medium groups
Category: Circle Games |
|
You need a bar of chocolate (preferably cold for older players), knife and several forks, a dice, a pair of large gloves and some other items of clothing depending on age group. e.g. scarf, hat, large coat or jacket, trousers, waistcoat, the list is endless.
Everybody forms a circle, half circle or sits in chairs. One person starts by throwing the dice followed by each person in turn. When someone throws a six he then runs to where all the clothes are and starts putting them on, once he is completely dressed he can then start trying to eat the bar of chocolate, with the knife and fork of course, cutting one square at a time.
While they are doing this the rest continue throwing the dice and if someone else throws a six, the person eating the chocolate has to stop and get undressed while the next person tries to get dressed and start eating the chocolate etc... The games obviously ends once the chocolate has been eaten.

Gobstopper Bowling
Required: Gobstoppers (small jawbreakers or puree marbles), pushpins, and flat surface
Players: Small to medium groups
Category: Miscellaneous Games |
|
We made up this game at the last second. We had a box of Gobstoppers and pushpins (not thumb tacks) so we invented Gobstopper bowling. We had three lanes open which were set up short length wise on a ping-pong
table. We set up 6 pushpins in a triangle formation on the opposite side of where the three teams were lined up. Then they bowled. The team with the highest score won. Have however many frames you’d like.
