1.PASS THAT GIFT
Here is an easy and fun game to play. Pick a gift to give at the show and wrap it. ( A discount card works great also). Take a minute to introduced yourself, and ask everyone stand up and get into a circle. Hand 1 person the gift and have them follow the following directions. The last one with the gift in hand wins. This game is a really neat and fun one to play and allows almost everyone to participate.
You thought all the gifts were meant for you. But I have other items too.
So hold up this gift and look around, and give it to the one with eyes of brown.
You think you are the lucky one, but let us all share in the fun!
Look around with eyes discreet, and give it to the one with the smallest feet.
Your feet are tiny and very small. Now hand it to someone very tall.
Please, take your time and don't be harried. Give it to the one who is longest married.
You must be proud of your married life, now pass this on to the newest wife.
Of this parcel you are bereft, give it to the one on your left.
The largest earring I'm looking for now, if you're wearing them, step up with a bow.
Now to the person with buttons-- big or small, any kind, the most you can find gets the gift at this time.
Now don't get cross and please don't fight, but pass it to the lady third on the right.
We should stop now, don't you agree? The gift is yours to open and see.
2. TV Show Game
Let everyone know you are playing a game for the price you choose, and tell them they must listen close. Read the following to everyone and when you are done have them write down all of the TV shows they can remember that you just mentioned. The one with the most written down wins.
I was THIRTY SOMETHING, living through THE WONDER YEARS with my FAMILY and my husband taking ONE DAY AT A TIME. We were doing okay, but THE FACTS OF LIFE were that we were not born with SILVER SPOONS in our mouths. Our savings were in JEOPARDY and we didn't want to be in debt for the rest of THE DAYS OF OUR LIVES. I finally told my husband, it's time to get out of THIS OLD HOUSE or at least make some HOME IMPROVEMENTS. I don't want to start a FAMILY FEUD but I'm YOUNG AND RESTLESS and I want to contribute to the family finances. It's time for me to GET SMART.
Don't be THE CRITIC, I'm in search of AMERICA'S MOST WANTED job. FAMILY MATTERS to me and I don't want to miss out on the PRIME TIME with the kids by hiring THE NANNY. [company] offers a great opportunity. THE PRICE IS RIGHT, no investment!!! Part-time work with full-time pay! And WHO'S THE BOSS? I am! But could I get up in front of a FULL HOUSE of PERFECT STRANGERS for 60 MINUTES and tell people how to take home their BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL with [company] merchandise and become DESIGNING WOMEN?
Of course, I have experienced some GROWING PAINS, but soon I was able to spread my WINGS and watch my business BLOSSOM. [company] has made me feel like I'm part of A-TEAM. I have GOOD TIMES at home with ALL MY CHILDREN. My family CHEERS when my weekly profit-check arrives!
Soon I'll FLY AWAY TO PARADISE...a dream vacation for which [company] will pay. My husband and I will be like HONEYMOONERS again, sharing HAPPY DAYS in ANOTHER WORLD. [company] may not be for everyone, as they say, DIFFERENT STROKES for different folks. But, if you are MARRIED WITH CHILDREN and have strong FAMILY TIES, I highly recommend [company] to you.
3. The Ask Me Game
At the end of my shows, I always play this game. I tell my guest they get 3 mins to ask me ANY question about MY JOB. ANYTHING at all. BUT there are some rules.... they MUST raise their hand, and no one can more than one question at a time.. there must be someone between each question they have... NO Question is UNANSWERED.... PLUS since in my shows I play the AUCTION through out it... there are 3 Questions that are bonus questions. Each Questions they ask gets them $100 in auction money, BUT for the BONUS ones they get $500 in auction money. The 3 BONUS questions are... How did you get started? How much money do you make? And whatever other question you feel is important In RECRUITING.
4. Blind Hawaii
Have everyone close his or her eyes. They picture Hawaii. Have them do the following with their eyes closed and they must keep their eyes closed the entire time!
Then ask them to draw the island (10 points). Then a sun in their sky (15), fish in their sea 20), a palm tree on their island (25), a boat in their sea (30), birds in their sky (35), a hula girl next to the palm tree (40), port holes on the ship(45), a drink (Maitai) in the girls hand(50), and last but not least a sailor on the ship(55).

THE HULA GIRL TO THE RIGHT, THE SHIP TO THE LEFT OF THE ISLAND, THE DRINK HAS TO BE TOUCHING THE GIRL, THE SHIP MUST HAVE THE PORTHOLES ON THE SHIP AND THE SAILOR MUST BE TOUCHING THE SHIP. EVERYONE GETS A BIG HOOT OUT OF IT. AND EVERYONE LOVES TO SHOW

Here it is:

had to turn right, right again, and then left. I hoped that I remembered the right way to get to here.
After I made the lefts and the rights, I found that my memory was right on target. I was right where I needed to be, here at __________'s house.
As I unloaded the car, I checked to make sure nothing was left behind. Putting one bag on my left shoulder and holding another with my right hand, I approached the door. Knocking with my right hand, I waited for ___________ to answer. After I set my samples down on the left of the room and my display items on the right, I was ready to start passing the samples. I say, "Please sample these products on your left hand and arm." As each item was introduced, I handed it to the person on my right, who passed it to the right and so on.
Once you have sampled the high quality products, please open your catalogs right away. There are so many awesome products on each page....make sure you look on the left side AND the right so you don't miss a single one!

7. Ticket Game
My favorite game is the ticket game, you take tickets ( ones with keep this coupon on one side) and tell people there is going to be a raffle. To get a ticket they have to ask you questions about your business or hostess plan. After all questions are asked you can play like a little game where you have a few gifts and the first ticket picket gets to pick one, then next ticket picks one and then the next ticket gets to steal etc...
This allows everyone to learn about your business and have some fun too!!
