Set Up
Everyone form a circle and one person starts in the middle
Directions
Person in the middle announces to the group a quality that they possess, that they would like to find in others. For example…"I am a twin." The leader determines who the first person in the middle is by picking at random or they could start themselves. When someone has a matching quality they race to find an open spot in the circle, including the person in the middle. When there aren’t any open spots the person stuck becomes the person in the middle. However if nobody has the characteristics called out by the person in the middle then you state another quality.
Debrief
What have you gotten out of this exercise? What qualities did people have in common? Did you find it hard to come up with characteristics?
Alternatives
If group is immobile or lacks space to move around then we suggest everyone who fits the criteria raises their hand and the center person picks the center person.
