Remember the Items Game:

1.  Place a large number of varied items on a large tray. The items can be anything from a toothbrush, a cell phone, a wallet, marbles, keys, few grains of rice, picture, pencil, strawberries, money, candy, lipstick, plastic straws, and anything else that you can think of. The idea here is to get as imaginative as possible. 

2.  Cover the tray with a large piece of cloth. 

3.  Distribute paper and pencils to your guests. 

4.  Place the tray loaded with the items at the center and remove the cloth. At this point, the guests are not allowed to write down anything. 

5.  Replace the cloth after a minute. Now, give the guests about five minutes in which they have to recall and write down whatever they have seen on the tray. 

6.  The winner will be the person who has remembered the highest number of items.   This is fun and exciting!
