First Year Predictions

What it feels like

Nobody knows who this little person is going to be yet. Which is exactly why tonight is the night to guess. Here's how it works. Take a private turn each and write one prediction about the baby's first year. The predictions are sealed in the Almanac, and nobody reads them tonight. They open the next time this group plays, and the whole room decides what came true. Every prediction that came true scores three points.

How to play

1. Take a private turn each and write one prediction about yourself.
2. The predictions are sealed in the Almanac. Nobody reads them tonight.
3. They open the next time this circle plays, and the room decides what came true.

Scoring: When they open, a prediction that came true scores 3.

You'll get prompts like

• “Predict the baby's first word”
• “Predict one thing the parents will have done by the next time we play”

What you need

3 to 10 people and one phone, tablet or laptop to pass around — or everyone on their own phone in a room. Nothing to download, no accounts. The best lines can be sealed into your group's Almanac and come back in later games.
