A good game for keeping children quiet for a short while.

Player 1 makes up a sentence and whispers it very quietly into the ear of Player 2. Player 2 repeats it, exactly as he heard it to Player 3 and so on. The last player says the sentence out loud. It’s usually very different from the original (try not to do this part just as the best man finishes his speech as it is usually accompanied by loud laughter!)
