At the party some girls secretly fill in the questionnaires on index cards. In these questionnaires the girls indicate their distinctive marks: height, color of the eyes, dress cut, jewelries. The leader puts all the cards into the box.

The boys take the cards and begin to search for the girls. The boy who finds the girl the first is the winner. Then the boys have a dance with the girls they have found.

AcrosticAn acrostic is an arrangement of words in which certain letters in each line, when taken in order, spell out a word or motto.  Ask group members to introduce themselves to each other by using words or phrases that describe them to create acrostics of their own names (or nicknames).  For example:

Andrew: Ace, Nice, Dynamic, Reliable, Energetic, Wonderful

Animal FarmThis is a quick, fun activity to divide your group into smaller groups.  

Give each person a card or post-it note with the name of a farm animal on it (ie. Cow, Pig, Horse, Sheep, etc).  To find the rest of their group, they must make the sound of the animal from their card, and then assemble into groups based on their animal (ie. all the pigs together, all the sheep, etc).  

Variations include blindfolding participants, or having different types of sounds (nursery rhymes, etc)

Animal Kingdom

Ask kids to introduce themselves and say which of the following animals they most identify with: eagle, dolphin, lion, sparrow, whale, or unicorn. (Use fewer animals for groups of 10 or fewer.) 

Then have kids group themselves according to the animals they chose.  Direct kids to answer the following three questions in their small groups. 

What is one thing all of you have experienced that many other people have not What is one thing all of you believe in?  What is one thing all of you are afraid of?

Banana Surgery

Split your group up into smaller groups, and give each group a banana, cutting board and plastic knife.  Each group should cut the banana into 4 or 5 equal sized pieces.  (don't tell them what the next steps are at this point).

Then hand out banana surgery kits - pins, string, sticky tape, tooth picks, rubber bands etc. The goal is for each group to reassemble the banana.

The lesson from this game is that some things (relationships, trust, reputation, bananas!) are easy to break but more difficult to put back together.  

The Color Game:Start with a color. Go around the room as fast as you can for each person to name something that is that color. Allow no more than three seconds to think. If a person cannot name something s/he is out of that round. Play until you have a winner for each color.

John Wayne:Have someone think of a famous person (start with John Wayne). The next person has to come up with a famous name that uses either John or Wayne in the first or last place (John Legend or Elton John) The next person can use any of the names the last person did. Keep going until someone gets stuck. Names cannot be repeated. You can establish rules of your own, such as: they must be living persons, or no people from your church or school.
