How to play

1. Everyone picks a word starting with the same letter as their first name.
2. Go around the circle: each person says their pairing.
3. For a harder version, each person repeats everyone before them first.
4. Use the full pairings for the rest of the session — that is what makes the names stick.

Variations

• Restrict the adjective to something true about you today.
• Animals instead of adjectives, for younger groups.
