Age: all ages
What You Will Need: Nothing!
Set-Up: Sit kids in a circle and find one volunteer to devise a silly phrase or saying. If these are young kids, you can whisper a word to the first kid.
How to Play: Begin the game by having the volunteer whisper their phrase into the ear of the child next to them (be sure it is age-appropriate). Then, this kid whispers to the next person and continues around the circle. Once it reaches the final person, they must say the phrase aloud and see if it is the same as the original. It almost always gets mixed up along the way! The original volunteer can share what the whole phrase was, and the kids can learn a fun, valuable lesson about the dangers of gossip. For younger kids, it is fun and good practice of vocabulary learnt in class (you can ask the host teacher to provide you with a list).
