Before you begin
- Cut the cards, so that they are separate.
- You should have enough cards for each player to have one card each – it doesn’t matter if you have to use some topics more than once.


Play the game
1. Give everyone a card. Everyone can play this game, even the grown ups.

2. Everyone should read the topic at the top of their card, and think about what they may like to talk about. [The questions are there to give you ideas – you don’t have to stick to them, or answer them all.]

3. Everyone should move about, to mix up. They could walk, hop, or dance.

4. The person leading the game should make a noise to tell everyone it’s time to get into pairs – they could use a whistle, bell, or their voice.

5. Everyone should find a partner – grown ups should partner with young people. [It’s OK if there aren’t enough grown ups, and some young people have to partner with each other.]

6. The youngest person in each pair should start. They should talk about the topic on their card for two minutes – the person leading the game should make a noise to let everyone know when two minutes has passed.

7. The older person in each pair should talk about the topic on their card for two minutes, when the person leading the game will make a noise again.

8. Each pair should swap cards, so everyone has a new topic to talk about. Occasionally, both people in the pair may have the same card; they can just do that card again.

9. Everyone should repeat steps two to eight, picking a different partner each time.
