A Quick Fix Party Game

Sometimes it happens that you have to organize a party in a jiffy and you are damn busy with the cooking and serving part.You do not have enough time to entertain the guests properly.You cannot even plan a game for them so as to keep them busy with it because it ultimately requires your attention in explaining,executing and then the most time consuming part checking the answers and all (especially for paper games).

I found a game exactly for such times and thought of sharing it.You will have to do nothing except get printed copies of the game,provide stationary and go and set up the table until the guests are busy.The guests will keep themselves and each other entertained with this game.

And, in case you have ample time and are not busy, the fun is double.While the guests are busy solving you can have a great time watching people playing it.

The fun the game involves can only be understood if you yourself give it a try right now.So right now print the instructions below and grab a pen and proceed further.Let's see how fast can you do it.

So here goes the game.

YOU HAVE TWO MINUTES IN WHICH

TO COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING

1. Read everything before doing anything.
2. Put your name in the upper right hand corner of the paper.

It is so much fun especially for the host.It's a great idea to keep a camcorder ready if you are free and record people doing all the funny things and the grins that follow on realizing the actual game........:)

P.S.The answers to the quiz are out now.You can find them here.

The beginning

Every time when I browsed through the net and came across some really good sites,some really good piece of work, I had this urge of sharing and letting everyone know of the good work.So this blog is for everyone who can share information.Anyone who has a big enough heart to share is welcome.


So to start with I found this beautiful concept of "Lunch box notes"for kids.
I just gave it a try and now my kids love it.I started giving notes to my elder kid since he was in Lower Kinder Garden.He absolutely loved the idea.It added some colour to his small world reminding him that he was loved and cared for.


When my younger daughter started going to school my son instructed me the first day itself "Mumma aap usse bhi lunch note dena".I started giving her and along with the picture I used to jot down some small messages like "I love you","Waiting for you back home","You are a cutie cat".


I wasn't sure whether it was being read or noticed until i met her teacher on the first PTM.And she told me "It's so sweet of you to send the small tiffin notes.Your daughter loves them and shows them off to all her friends and they are all so excited and happy."


So all  mummas out here i want you to give it a try .Your kids are going to love you for that and this will be a part of their fond childhood memories forever.


They are easy to find and their are a load of websites offering them.You can easily print these out,cut them out(I do this part in bulk :D)and put them in their lunch packs or shirt pockets or pencil cases or socks or anywhere else.You can find them here,here,here and here.


Tell me if you like the idea I'll keep posting more of these.
So until next time goodbye and take care.

Loads of happiness and laughter.
