Trelawney's Predictions« Back to List of Games

Fortune-telling activities for Divination.

Materials:

magic eight ball (optional)
crystal ball (optional)
box with curtain (optional)
pre-written fortunes on paper (optional)

Instructions:

A fortune telling booth or area is a great deal of fun. It can be as elaborate as having someone dress as Trelawney and make "predictions" for each guest by looking in a crystal ball. A list of some fun answers can be drawn up in advance of the game, ready for "Trelawney "to use.

*A variation on this can be to use the magic eight ball, and base your responses using the answers in the eight ball.

* A second variation is to set up a type of "all knowing Magic Eye" or a box painted to look like some cool great eye or Wizard of Oz thing, with a black curtain in front. The guests say their name.. Ex: � I am Sue, tell me my fortune oh great wizard!�...then the kids reach through and pull out pre-made pieces of paper with loopy fun fortunes or predictions on it.
