Puzzled Words
Words are written out on slips of paper and then cut into single letters. Each letter going to make up a word is given the same number.
For example, in the word "battle", number each letter of "Battle" No. 1. All of the number 1's are told to get together, discover what their word is and when their number is called, act it out for the group to guess.
Trip Around the World
Various articles are distributed around the room, each representative of some country. For illustration, a package of tea, representing China; a shamrock, representing Ireland; a maple leaf, representing Canada.
A slip of paper and a pencil are given to each member of the group, who endeavors to guess what country each article suggests.
Bean Penalty
Each guest, upon entering the room, is given ten beans and instructed to ask questions of each other. Should a question be answered by either yes or no, the individual so answering must surrender a bean to the one asking the question. At the end of the playing period, the individual having the largest number of beans is the winner.
