Give Me Names

The Rhythm
Get everyone banging on the table with both hands, clapping and clicking their fingers to the following rhythm:

BANG (the table),
CLAP (your hands),
CLICK (left fingers),
CLICK (right fingers) and so on

BANG, CLAP, CLICK, CLICK!
BANG, CLAP, CLICK, CLICK!

Play
Make sure everyone is in time, then start by calling out, to the rhythm:

"To My Left" (or right if you choose),
"Give me names of..." followed by your request which can be anything, such as

- Types of car
- Popstars
- Celebrities
- Countries of the world

Go around the table in the direction you have called, everyone shouting out on their go an appropriate answer to the request, in time to the beat. The rhythm keeps the pressure up, and eventually someone will obviously fail, calling out late, or just not getting anything.

Assign a forfeit and let the loser start a new round, with a new request.
Continue as long as you want... and keep an eye open for people who can't get the clapping right - this alone is enough to incur a forfeit (see our forfeits page).
