Toothless

The first person says the name of a vegetable. The second person says the first person’s vegetable, and then adds their own. The third person continues and the game goes around in a circle. The tricky part is that you must say the vegetables without showing your teeth. Anyone who shows their teeth in any way is eliminated. (If you start laughing you cannot duck your head or cover your mouth with your hand.) Whoever is left is the winner.

Number Game

One person thinks of a number between 1 and 100. The other players take turns trying to guess the number. After each guess, the person who thought of the number says whether the next player should guess “higher” or “lower” than the previous guess. Keep going until someone guesses the correct number, and then that person gets to think of the next number.
