Inspirations for getting kids interacting:
- Person bingo - kids go around a class/group trying to find people who fit the descriptions on their bingo sheet. Encourages talking and getting to know others.
- Museum of Me - each kid in a class fills out a set of cards, like the one pictured below, displaying their family, interests, hobbies, etc. These are set up in an exhibit for the class to go around and view to learn more about each other.

- Musical Pairs - like musical chairs, except when the music stop the teacher/leader gives a trait and each kid has to match up with someone who is the same as them in that way (e.g. same eye colour, same favourite sport, same age)
