1. Break everyone into groups of 6 (each group can play the game independently). Have everyone sit in a circle.
 * How to Play Honey, I Love You Game:**

2. Have one person from each group start by being “it”. The “it” person tries not to smile or laugh throughout the round. The person on the left of the person who is “it” tries to make the person smile or laugh within 15 seconds by only asking questions. Each time the person asks a question, the “it” person can only respond by saying the phrase “Honey, I love you, but I just can’t smile.”

3. If the person succeeds and makes the “it” person smile/laugh, then that person is “it” for the new round. If the person doesn’t succeed, the next person down the line attempts to make the “it” person smile or laugh within 15 seconds. If the “it” person is able to not smile/laugh throughout all of the remaining people, the person wins the game.

2. Explain the rules: All teams must go out and complete as many actions on the list as possible within one hour. The teams must take a photo of their completed action as evidence. Each team must come back within 1 hour - if a team is late, then each minute past the time will count as a point deducted from the final score. 3. Hand each team two lists. Make sure to record the time that each team comes back and track deducted points. 4. When the teams return, upload the photos onto the laptop, and review the photos from each team on the projector for everyone to see and share. The team with the most points wins the game. []
 * How to Play the Mall Scavenger Hunt Game:** 1. Split everyone into groups of four or five (make sure each group has access to a driver and car, and has a digital camera).

1. Arrange everyone into teams of 6. Hand each team a set of numbers and ask everyone to take a number. Have the team elect one person to be the leader of the team.
 * How to Play The Number Game:**

2. The goal of the game is to be the first team to rearrange themselves to the number that you call. The leaders can help rearrange them to their appropriate positions. Once the team rearranges themselves, they have to raise their hands and stand in place.

3. The first team to arrange themselves correctly receives one point. The team that reaches 10 points wins the game. []

How to Play The Zoom In Game**:** 1. Separate everyone into teams of 5. Give each team a piece of paper and pen. The object of the game is to identify as many objects from the Powerpoint as possible as a group. 2. The first “zoomed” slide is worth 5 points, the second “zoomed out” slide is 4 points, the third “zoomed out” slide is 3 points, and the fourth “zoomed out” slide is worth only 1 point. Each team tries to identify the object as soon as possible, to get the maximum amount of points. 3. As soon as the group thinks they know what the object is, they have to raise their hand and write their answer down on the piece of paper. *You’ll need to ask and take note on which slide they wrote down their answers. 4. Go through each slide, giving each team 1 minute to look at, discuss each slide, and an opportunity to write their answer down. Once their answer has been written, they cannot change their answer. 5. Once the object is revealed, the team that has the correct answer will receive the amount of points for the slide that they stopped at. For example, if a team correctly identifies the object by the second "zoomed out" slide, the team is awarded 4 points. If the team answers incorrectly, they do not gain any points for that round. 6. The team with the most points wins the game.
 * Goal:** Avoid being the last person standing.
 * Preparation:** - One person needs to start the game by standing in the middle of the circle - You will need everyone to sit in chairs arranged in a circle.**How to Play Where the Wind Blows Game:** 1. The person in the middle needs to say a sentence of something they have never done before. For example, “I’ve never been in an airplane”, “I never been to a buffet”, “I’ve never been the Hawaii”, “I’ve never had a pet”. 2. If the person’s statement applies to someone sitting in the circle, that person has to move from his or her seat and sit in a different chair. 3. The person in the middle will need to try to sit down. One person will remain standing. The standing person starts a new round by saying a different statement.
 * Note**: People cannot move to seats on their immediate left or right. For example, they can sit two seats away, but they cannot move to the left or right of their current chairs.
