www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Game Play Everyone sits in a circle. From this point forward, you may not show your teeth. To speak, you must pull your lips inward around your teeth to hide them. A question is started, related to Valentine’s Day. For example, “Would you like a rose for Valentines day?” www.CreativeHolidayIdeas.com
www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com • The person asked then replies “I don’t know I’ll have to ask my neighbor.” He then asks the neighbor the same question without showing his teeth. • This keeps going around the circle. • When someone’s teeth show due to laughter, he or she is out. Once it goes all the way around the circle, the next person gets to change the question. Smiling is permitted provided the teeth don’t show. www.CreativeHolidayIdeas.com
www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com • The choice of questions can be a source of laughter so question choice is important. • When asking or answering, contorting the facial muscles may be used to try to make the person next to you laugh. • If a question is vulgar or suggestive, the person is removed from the game. www.CreativeHolidayIdeas.com
