THE ALPHABET GAME
Players sit around in the order their names come in the alphabet, thus Alicwill sit first, then Ben, and so or. Alice starts the game by mentioning a flower or fruit beginning with lieinitial? then Ben with one starting with his, and so on round and round the circle until a player does not answer promptly; in this case he or she falls out of the game. It is great fun when there are two or more players with names beginning with the same initial, since, of course, no flower or fruit muFt be said twice. Also it is very hard on the player whose name begins with, say, Y or Z. This player should have a special prize, as naturally he or she must be the first to fall out Players must play this game quickly, so that they do not have too much time to think, or else it spoils the fun.
