We are having our annual extended family get-together and I am in charge of the program. Iam looking for a game we can play (all adults-women) that will include everyone. We are about 40 adults. Any ideas?

In the past we have done fruit platter competitions, a game where the participants heard 3 seconds of a sound and had to identify it-from flushing toilets to a jingling key. We played many more-I could list them if others need ideas, but right now I am all out of ideas for something to do this year.

There are always prizes for the winners.

Anyone??

Group Pictionary - Buy A1 pads of paper, either using an easel or just blutack to wall, have two teams, and they have to guess the word first.

If you have time to prepare, do a quiz, again can do in teams. I'm sure you can find something online.

Um.. Can't think of anything else right now. Will let you know if I do.

what about the game "Mad Gab"? you can buy it or do it yourself, you write a sentence and the words are'nt broken up right and not spelled right. Person has to figure out what is says.

Or take a word from the dictionary that nobody heard of before and everyone makes up their own definition, take everyones papers fold them up and also stick in a paper with the real definition. After read all the papers and everyone votes on what they think is the real definition. whoever gets the most votes wins that round.

This game can be as serious or as funny as you want it to. You have two bags - one with each person's name on a paper, the other with items from around the house. You go around the circle and each person picks a name and an item. They then have to give a bracha or a wish or a compliment to the person incorporating the item in their bracha.
