How to do it
Divide the young people into groups of three. Invite the first group to stand up in front of the others. Invite one of them to take something out of the box without looking. Keep the remaining props covered to prevent pre-planning. Whatever they get is now their favourite thing.
They must tell and demonstrate how their item is used and explain why they like it so much. For example, it may have belonged to a famous person, given by a favourite relative or even been used to save a life. Encourage fast thinking and creativity. It helps to start with someone who is fairly confident, as their success will encourage the others.
