Procedure:

                                Players sit in a circle.  A player begins the game by completing the phrase, “I’m going on a picnic, and I’m going to take...”  The second player repears the first players sentence and adds a second item.  Each player will repeat the sentence and items said before them and then add one of their own.  Have the circle go fulll circuit twice.  A “penalty” for players who do not repeat the list correctly might include being required to stand in the center and act out each list item as they are being recited.  They can sit down after someone else makes a mistake and then takes their spot.
