How to Play What Am I?
This game is similar to Hedbanz. It's easy to play with various sized groups and it's lots of fun.
Mix up all the cards and place them upside down in a pile on the table.
Everyone picks one card and places it on their head without looking at it. You can use Hedbanz for this or even a sweatband.
Take turns asking yes and no questions to discover what your card is.
After you correctly guess your card, repeat steps. The person with the most cards wins.
For more cards, use my CTR Bingo or Latter-day Saint Pictionary games.
Tie this game into a great lesson by talking about how asking questions is a great thing. It’s how we learn more. Joseph Smith asked a question and received the First Vision. You can then focus on asking the right type of questions or how to seek the answers. In order to find the right answers, you need to consult the right sources. If you have math questions, look in an appropriate math book. If you have a question about fish, check out a book about fish. If you have questions about spiritual things, look in the scriptures and use prayer.
Lesson Resources
Use the following articles to further develop a lesson that's right for your family:
"Joseph Smith" by Elder Neil L. Andersen
"Ask in Faith" by Elder David A. Bednar
End the night with these mystery jelly beans to stay on theme and add additional laughter to your evening.
This game would also be fun to play for Primary Activities or as an opening for your next Come, Follow Me lesson- make cards based on the main purpose for your lesson to introduce the topic or use it as a great review. If you need more cards, use the calling cards in my CTR Bingo or the cards in my Latter-day Saint Pictionary game.
Celebrate the sweetest story ever told, one tiny treat at a time.
Turn everyday candies into thoughtful Christmas gifts, a daily scripture countdown, or a family Christmas Eve devotional. Our Nativity Candy Circles attach to wrapped treats like Hershey’s Kisses, Rolos, and miniature Reese’s peanut butter cups, adding a reminder of Jesus Christ to each little bite.
For a countdown, include one of each picture and choose a candy at random each day, December 1–24. Match the picture to the scripture guide and read about the Savior’s birth, life, and mission. For a Christmas devotional, use the separate numbered Nativity guide to assign readings and share the Christmas story together.
Or simply fill a mug, jar, treat bag, or stocking with decorated candies. No counting required! Add a matching gift tag for neighbors, teachers, friends, or the families you minister to.
Your instant-download PDF includes:
Two sets of 24 candy-circle designs: a KJV Bible edition and a Bible + Book of Mormon edition, with four complete sets per candy-circle page.
Matching scripture countdown guides for both editions, with picture references, short reading titles, and checkboxes.
Nativity devotional reading guides for both editions, with numbered assignments for reading the Christmas story in order.
