A perfect fit for a farewell party overflowing with middle schoolers’ smiles is the NG Word Game, where psychological tactics are key.

It’s easy to prepare and lets everyone have fun while minding their language, making it ideal for an end-of-year event.

Each person secretly chooses an NG (forbidden) word, and during conversation, you try to coax others into saying their forbidden word without them noticing.

This game delivers both thrills and excitement, offering TV-variety-show-level fun that brings plenty of laughter and tension to the students.

Adding a light penalty for the loser will make the time even more engaging.

Musical chairs

Musical Chairs - Shimanto Small School

It’s a game so popular that it hardly needs explaining: musical chairs.

Arrange a circle of chairs with one fewer than the number of participants, and have everyone walk around them.

While the music plays, they move rhythmically; when the music stops, that’s the signal to sit.

The person left without a chair is out.

Remove one chair each round and continue until only one person remains.

It’s a game where keen perception and quick reflexes make all the difference.

Giving the winner a small prize makes for a nice memento.
