Description

You will need a tennis ball or a towel tied in a knot for this one. Everyone sitting or standing in a circle. You give one person the ball, and ask him to name as many words as possible that start with a `P` (or any other letter), in the time it takes for the ball to get passed along the circle. Doubles don`t count, obviously.

Notes

Tell players not to watch the ball go round when they`re `it` - they`ll just panic and freeze. Tell them to try this with closed eyes.

Variations

Pair up the players and use a stopwatch. Ask the left players on the left to name as many words as possible starting with a `t`, and ask their partners to count, for 15 or 20 seconds. Then switch.
