Icebreaker Activity

1. Place one of the nametags containing a movie title on the back of every youth as they enter the room.
2. Each youth must now try to guess what is on their back by going around the room asking other youth "yes" or "no" questions about the nametage on their back.
3. These questions must be yes-no questions (ex. Q. "Am I a recent movie?" A. "Yes")
4. Depending on the size of the youth group, only one question can be asked to each youth in the room (to get everyone talking to everyone else). For small groups you may allow 2 questions per youth.
5. The first youth to guess the name of the movie on their back is the winner.

Variation
Instead of "yes" or "no" questions, as the youth move around moving from person to person they must name one fact about the movie or one character / person that starred in the movie. As soon as a youth is successful in guessing the title of the movie, he goes and sits down. The youth who is giving information to the person with the nametag tries to keep it somewhat vague so that other youth will not be able to sit down before he does. All information must be factual and honest.
