Aunt Minerva

We played a new game at Morning Meeting yesterday. The kids thought it might be fun to play in the car/plane if people are traveling for the holiday. It's also just a fun game to play when you have a few extra minutes together. :o)

The person who begins the activity decides on a category such as "hot" but does not tell anyone else. Instead s/he gives several examples to demonstrate the category by telling things that Aunt Minerva likes and doesn't like. For example, if the category is "hot", s/he might say, "Aunt Minerva likes Florida but doesn't like Alaska. Aunt Minerva likes heavy down quilts but doesn't like thin sheets. Aunt Minerva likes soup but doesn't like ice cream." The other players try to figure out the category.
