MAIN POINT: Getting to know you
Good small group game. The object is to get individuals to share unknown things about themselves in a safe environment. Each player writes down a little-known truth about himself. The paper slips are handed in and read aloud one at a time. The slips are then read a second time, and players write who they think wrote that slip. After everyone has guessed on slips, the truth is revealed. Each player gets a point for every correct guess. If no one guesses a person’s slip correctly, that person gets five points.
