silly tasks for teen students?
|
Hello,
Could you please tell me the word for silly tasks used in games. They are usually given while playing board games etc. If the student doesn �t know the answer to a question (grammar, vocab etc), s/he must do something silly/ a bit embarassing (put on yellow clothes and sing nursery rhyme "I am little teapot". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b14OeT1gNFo
Do you happen to know a website with a list of such silly tasks (not too embarrasing) for teens?
THANK YOU!

Hi Nika:)
They are called forfeits and you could do the search "forfeits ideas for teens"Here �s what I �ve found: Put lipstick on the person to your right (blindfolded)
Give the person to your left a donkey ride
Wear a wig for the rest of the game
Kiss a pillow like its your most fanciable person
Act like a monkey for 20 seconds
Sit with an ice cube down your t-shirt
Get a moustache drawn on you Do a belly dance
Name seven dwarfs
Name five parts of the body spelt with only 3 letters.
Shake hands with everyone
