Smarties
I learned this game at a Facilitator's Training in
South Wellington Division, which was run by Nina Stubbs and Janice Monahan.
This game is great for a small group of adults who have
come together for a training or meeting. Ask each person to pour themselves a
small handful of Smarties. Then from their handful, ask them to put aside a
candy with each of their three most favourite colour. Once everyone has chosen
their colours, put up a poster with the following questions on it:
- Red: If you were a girl member,
what is your favourite memory? If not, what got you involved in Guiding as
an adult?
- Yellow: What do you
enjoy most about being a Guider?
- Purple: Tell us a little about your family.
- Green: Tell us a little about your hobbies and
interests outside of Guiding.
- Blue: Tell us a little about your work (past or
present) or schooling.
- Orange: Is there anything you've never done, but
would like to try someday?
- Brown: What do you enjoy most about the age group
you're currently working with?
- Pink: If you could go anywhere in the world for
free, where would you go?
Then go around the group and have each person tell the
group their answers for each of their three coloured Smarties.
Note: we used Smarties instead of M&M's because in
their manufacture, M&M's have most probably come in contact with peanuts at
some point.
