The person at one end (lets imagine it is you) thinks of something silly to say. Try something like: Many of the mermaids get the giggles when they gossip. Whisper it to the person sitting next to you. That person then whispers the message to the next person, but it has to be done immediately, with no thinking time, and you can only hear the message once.

Work to the end of the line, passing the message on quickly. There is a big chance that the message you end up with wont be anything like the original! Tangled Tiaras Oops! Aqua has gotten her tiaras in a big muddle. Can you count how many there are on the page? Find the Friends The mermaids have lots of creatures to play with under the sea.
