Games for Us OBEs.!

Name that tune.
Who am I ?
Pick a topic i.e. flowers name them in turn alphabetically.

Try Exit games. I can’t do links but if you type it into Amazon you will see them.

Good fun, you play as a group and it certainly gets the mind working.

They suggest a time limit but I think it’s more fun to keep puzzling away - sometimes for days!

Word2( scrabble type) and ‘word with friends’ if you have iPads or iPhones they re apple apps and you play with others you may know or with strangers you don’t

Thank you! You've triggered off some thoughts already. Especially the thought of iPhones and iPads.! Who knows!?; we might be able to persuade the local Council to buy us one each as part of its "social inclusion, keep them at home programme". If you don't ask you don't get! Please keep them coming.

Does it need to be competitive?

Sing-along of pre and post war songs. My groups absolutely love this. Just need one confident singer to start it off. Include favourite hymns too.

Print out some logos: see pictures. How many can you identify?

I used to collect oral histories and the best question to start anyone talking was, 'What's the earliest thing you remember?'
It may be a school memory (nasty or nice teacher) or something grandma said. Leads to some wonderful conversations and fantastic memories.

And a word game which seems popular is Word Train: The first person comes up with a word, say, 'serpent' and the next person's word must begin with T, always the last letter must start the next word.
You can also make this in card, similar to dominoes.

Also, Google "celebrities from 1940's" then go to 'Images' print pictures and see how many can be identified. If you want this to be competitive, do it in twos or threes against one another.

Does it need to be competitive?
