How to play
The group stands in the middle of a room or between two markers, with one wall or marker designated TRUE and the opposite one FALSE. The leader reads a statement — "Bats are actually blind" — and on "Run!" everyone sprints to the side they believe is correct; staying in the middle is not allowed. Score it either way: first player to touch the correct side wins the round, or everyone on the wrong side is eliminated until a champion remains. Works with any subject matter — trivia, review questions from a lesson, or statements about people in the group.
What you'll need

Donkey Game
Everyone circles up, and two people start with a ball each. One ball is to be passed around the circle TWO people to the left, and the other ONE person to the right (or any other combination of the balls going in different directions). If ever someone is the circle ends up with two balls in their hands at the same time, they go into the center of the circle on their hands and knees, kick their feet in the air, and make donkey noises, while the rest of the circle chants "so-and-so is the donkey!" (or any other fun suitable mildly humiliating action). Continue for 10 seconds or so and send the balls around again.

Fruit Salad
All sit in a circle facing the center. One person in the middle says for example: "everyone with glasses". Then everyone with glasses gets up, changes seats and the one in the middle sits down. Those who are sitting can move to the seat on the right to prevent those who are standing from sitting down. The one who can't find a seat says something again and the game continues. If the one in the middle says "fruit salad" EVERYONE has to change seats.

Pass packet memory
Pass the package = the package (a prize/gift) is passed around the circle and when the music stops, the person left holding the package unwraps a cape. In each layer there is a word from a sentence, which they have to memorize to put them together at the end of the game and discover the hidden phrase. Continue doing this until the end of the packet.
