Oh! So this is just Green Glass Door, I play this with kids sometimes (work in Youth Services). The title kinda hints at what you can take through the door
I like it but can't think of other examples. Ive thought of bringing only things that start with a certain letter, certain colors, the double letter words... I'm stuck
Hi there Colonel Buck, thanks for your question. There are ample social-emotional learning (SEL) elements connected to this activity when integrated as a part of a carefully facilitated program, eg self-awareness and social awareness skills. On the face of it, Come To My Party may look like a fun game (and it is) but when you dive a little deeper, a lot more value can be mined. It's all described in this link available to members: www.playmeo.com/activities/fun-large-group-games/come-to-my-party
It's not boring - it's old, but not boring and I've used it for literally years in a NYC high school setting and it's all about the presentation. If it's boring - give us something else rabbit.
I just tried this game out at my before and after school care group. The absolutely LOVED playing this game! Thanks for explaining how to play!
You're welcome Ethan, I'm glad you enjoyed it...
I wish there wasn't a description to the game in the very beginning, would've loved to guess with them!

Yep, it is probably known by so many names, whatever works for you is perfect for your group.
It's so refreshing too hear an Australian
Thanks for your comment. I think it's refreshing too :-)

Yes Chantell, these are all good ideas to be the 'key.' Have fun. So much more where this activity came from - go to www.playmeo.com/activities/
So ... what it it that you're supposed to learn about yourself in this exercise?

As you are a book writer, I will bring to you your book or an autograph booklet. The surest way to get myself into your party. 😆
Good try, and a "book" may just get you into my party on this occasion, but next time it may not :-) It all depends on the secret code...
I think that's a cool game to play with a group or something, but the group can't come to the party.
Agreed, this is a cool game for almost any group.
"Hilariously"
I know, makes you laugh doesn't it. Especially once you have cracked the code....
6:04 Who the hell brings grass to a party? 😂 Your species is insane.
In this case, it's simply someone's guess to crack the code of this fun lateral thinking exercise.
OMG! I'm sleep...
Sorry you fell asleep, I presume you didn't make it to the party :-)
Boring!

Thanks for chiming in here. Yep, it's an oldie but a goodie, and like most group games & activities, it's all in how you deliver it.
