How to play
Create a bingo grid (4×4 or 5×5) where every square is a personal statement — "has more than five siblings," "has broken a bone," "speaks three languages." Give every player a sheet and a pen, then send them mingling to collect a different name for each square; each person can appear only once per sheet. Play to either finish line: first player to fill their whole grid wins, or, once the grids are full, the leader draws and calls names and the first player to strike out four in a row wins.

Feet still
In the still feet game we will need a minimum of four people for this game. One of them should start in the center with a ball in hand. That person must kick the ball (as far as possible) shouting the name of a participant. In the period of time that the main person kicks the ball saying a name and that person looks for it, the rest of the participants run as far as possible. When the person who was named manages to reach the ball, she must shout "Steady feet!" and then everyone must stay still, in turn whoever has the ball will take three steps and throw it to someone. On the first hit he is injured, on the second serious and on the third he is dead and is eliminated.
