Things You'll Need

• Clothes pins
• <br>Large container
• <br>Note cards
• <br>Two prizes of your choice

Instructions

1. Pick up several clothes pins (you will need five per guest). As guests arrive to the party have them gather around in a circle and sit down.

2. Hand each guest five clothes pins and tell them to clip it onto their clothing.

3. Choose two popular words. If any guest says those words as they answer questions, talk or ask questions during the game, that person will have to remove one clothes pin. For example, if someone asks a guest a question and the person says the word "work" in their answer and that's one of the chosen words, they must remove and give that person their clothes pin. The person with the highest number of clothes pins at the end of the game will win a prize.

4. Hand each guest 10 note cards. On the note cards, they must write the answer to 10 personal questions that you have asked. These questions can range from "When is your birthday?" to "What do you do for a living?" to "What are you most afraid of?" All must be personal questions.

5. Collect the note cards and place them in a large plastic container or bowl. Pick out a note card. Ask the group a question like, "Who said they are most afraid of failure?" The guests must then go around in the circle and say the name of the person that they think gave that answer. The guest who gives the most right answers will also win a prize.
