Game

Answer:

Zip zap zop

For this game you'll need at least seven people.

One person starts by jumping up, pointing at someone, and saying "zip."

The person they point to then repeats step 1, but they say "zap."

The third person says "zop."

Keep repeating steps 1-3. The person who messes up first is out and the game is over.

You can't do it right back to the person who pointed at you.

Back to regular posting!

Hi everyone! Hope you all had a wonderful Pesach. Sorry for the break in posting. Hopefully, IY"H, we'll be back to a regular schedule now. So for 'Winning Wednesday' here's a fun game to play with friends or family. 

One person says a letter. Then each person, one at a time, has to say a letter, forming a word. The letter you say has to have the possibility of forming a word, but if you end a word you get a point. The first person with 5 points is out. If you think that the letter someone says doesn't have the possibility of forming a word, you can challenge them, and they have to tell you what word it could form. If they don't have one right away, they get a point. 

Example: One person says A. The next person says N (even though AN is a word, 3 letter words or less don't count). The next person says I, then M, then, A (ANIMA can lead to a word but isn't a whole word itself). The person that says L ends the word ANIMAL and gets a point.  A new round starts. 

Seder Games!

Here are some great games to play at the Seder or anytime on Pesach!

This is an interesting game that doesn’t take a lot of work to prepare. Go around your house and find different objects such as an egg, a stuffed animal, or any objects you would like to use. Put all of your collected items in a bag. At the seder, pass around the bag and have each person take one object out of the bag without looking. Now have the person tell how each object is related to the story of Passover. 

Before the seder, write down on different sheets of paper people or things connected to the story of Passover, such as frogs, Moses, lice, etc. In the middle of the seder, have someone put on a scarf or bandana and tape one of the objects/ people on the scarf, so everyone can see except the person wearing the scarf. Now the person wearing the scarf tries to figure out who or what he is by asking yes or no questions. If they figure it out quickly give them a small prize.

This game is like charades. Have different sentences from the Haggadah prepared ahead of time on sheets of paper. Each person randomly selects a piece of paper. Then that person acts out the sentence he has been given without talking. Everyone else then tries to guess what he is acting out. The person may use his hands to say how many words are in the sentence, and he can indicate that words or sentences rhyme by touching his ear.

Concentration with a Twist!

Here's a game idea to play with friends:

Sit enough chairs for everyone playing in a circle. Tape each girl's name on a piece of paper to  her chair. For the first round you play regular concentration "Shira, Shira, Malka Malka...Malka, Malka, Sara, Sara...etc) until someone gets out. When they get out a new round starts and everyone has to move over one seat. Now the name they have to play with is the one taped to their seat! The game ends when everyone is back to their original seats. Have Fun!
