Games – Here is a game to play with your friends or family. It is called Two Truths and a Lie – start by telling them three things about yourselves but 2 are true and one is a lie. Ask them to try to guess which one is the lie. Or pick an object and tell 3 things about it but 1 is a lie. For example:  See this ceramic fish? (Picture me holding up a ceramic fish) My mom bought it for me. It came from Italy. I really like it. Can you tell which is the lie? Well, my mom did buy this fish in Italy, but do not really like the fish. I keep it because it came from my mom. So the lie is that I really like it. Shhh please do not tell my mom.
