Introducing Association

Description

This little technique can be used to show a new group how natural associating really is. You can only do this with a new group, that has not played any association games before.

Place all players in a circle. Ask one player to say a word, no matter which one. The player to her right then says no matter what word, and so on. Do not tell them they should try and `associate`.

You (and hopefully the group) will notice that patterns of `related` or `associated` words emerge. Use this as an introduction to show how natural associating is to humans, and then proceed with the other association games.
