Round robin story

Pass out pens or pencils (or open a blank document on a laptop) and instruct kids to sit in a circle. Have an adult write or type the first line of the story, then hand the creativity over to the party guests. Pass around the notebook or laptop, and let each person add a line or paragraph, depending on how much time you want the game to take. Each guest should continue the story from the last line written.

When the story is finished, the birthday kid or party host can read the story out loud. Photocopy the results for each contributor.
