Two truths and a lie
Two truths and a lie is a fun talking game, perfect for a get-to-know-you event. Players tell three facts about themselves, two true and one false, and the other players have to guess which one is the lie.
Chicken
This version of chicken is a pool game where players sit on each other’s shoulders and try to knock other pairs over. A lot of fun (if somewhat rough and dangerous).
Paper telephone
This is a great party game for teens or adults. Kind of like a cross between pictionary and telephone, players write sentences, convert each other’s sentences into pictures, and back and forth until the results are hilarious.
Going on a picnic
A talking, guessing game, good for younger kids and older kids, too. It’s a good game for thinking and creativity, too, and for killing time on long road trips.
Hangman
Hangman is a classic word-guessing game played on paper or a chalkboard. Here’s instructions to play and a free hangman game printout.
