This traditional Trapp family game is ideal for a large group of well-acquainted individuals.

DIRECTIONS

The teams are placed at opposite sides of the room. Each team gets the same quotation. One word of the quotation gets pinned to the back of each player. At "Go" one may read the word on the back of every other member of one's team, but not that on one's own back. Rule: No oral communication! The winning team is the one that first gets itself lined up in correct order. (Have the words in large-size printing so the "audience" can enjoy the fun too!)
