Another Senior only game--they need to have a good grasp on language in order to make this one work! I usually pair this one with Missing Halves for Junior.
- list of 8-10 songs you want to sing
- synonym "titles" for each of the songs on your list, written/printed on small slips of paper. Here are some I've used in the past:
- When I Am Immersed (I Enjoy Searching For Color Spectrums) = When I Am Baptized (I like to look for rainbows) p. 103
- Cherish Your Fellow Men = Love One Another (p. 136)
- A Little One's Supplication = A Child's Prayer (p. 12)
- I Am a Member of the Congregation of Jehovah = I Belong to the Church of Jesus Christ (p. 77)
- I Am the Offspring of Deity = I Am a Child of God (p. 2)
- The Sage Constructed His Dwelling Upon The Stone = The Wise Man Built His House Upon the Rock (p. 281)
- Obey the Seer = Follow the Prophet (p. 110)
- The Troops of Alma's Son = Army of Helaman (p. 172)
- The Tome of Nephite Tales = Book of Mormon Stories (p. 118)
- Word of God Strength = Scripture Power (sheet music)
- He Commissioned His Son = He Sent His Son (p. 34)
- Hope For Things Which Are Not Seen, But Which Are True = Faith (p. 96)
- If You Are Exhilarated and Aware of It = If You're Happy And You Know It (p. 266)
- small bag/container to put the slips in
Set up:
- Put your slips in your bag/container. That's it!
Game play:
- Explain to the children how to play.
- This is usually best done through an example, so use one of the examples above that you DON'T have in your plans that day.
- Have a child draw a slip and read it to the Primary.
- Usually after they read it once, I read it again for clarity.
- If necessary, use some definitions as hints ("What is a seer? Oh, like a PROPHET?")
- Once they've guessed correctly, sing the song, then play again!
