Two Truths & A Lie – Each person, taking turns, tells 2 true things and one lie about themselves, and the others ask questions about all 3. The person tries to make it as difficult to detect which one is the lie, as possible. It ends that person’s turn, when all the others either say which is the lie, or give up. When the person fools everyone, it is a riot, esp. when the people know each other. You find out some INTERESTING things about people you THOUGHT you knew!! (If someone already knows which is the lie, they need to sit and watch, not play, its still fun, because they know the answer!). People who correctly guess which is lie, feel very victorious! “Ah HA! I knew it! You didn’t fool me!”
BEANS (for lack of a name) Put a big bowl of dried beans in the center. Each person, taking turns, says something true, that they have done in their life. The more unique, the better, that person takes a bean, but anyone else who has done the same thing, also takes a bean, for their pile! The one with the most beans, when all the beans are gone, wins! Makes for a very interesting time! One time a guy who lived in the wild in Alaska, won, but it was fascinating! But then there was the woman who said proudly (thinking she had one no one else would benefit from!), “I’VE slept with Tim!”, looking triumphant,as she took her bean. Where upon 3 other women, exchanged looks and then all got up and took a bean! The laughter was loud!
