Title: Karaoke
Summary:

Karaoke is a singing contest that is usually played by reading lyrics on a screen but in this case, we play with People with visual impairment and we use songs that are familiar to them in order for the participants to sing from their memory. In case partially sighted participants are involved, a karaoke program can be used for which you will just need to maybe increase the font size.

A karaoke night can be organized in a pub where friends and relatives can be invited or it can be an open microphone night.

Title: Looking for a partner
Summary: This dynamic is based on choosing well-known phrases, sayings or drawings that are divided in two and distributed among the members of the group. Each person has to find the person who has the part of the phrase or drawing that is missing. They talk among themselves, telling each other their name, their hobbies, what they like to do in their free time. The group is told to be very attentive to what the partner tells them as they will then have to present it to the rest of the group. Each member of the pair then introduces the person they have been talking to to the rest of the group.

Summary: All participants form a circle in which every person is physically linked with two others. One volunteer stands with one hand on his/her hip, and then share one or more statements about his/herself to the group. When someone from the rest of the group hears a statement that they have in common with the first volunteer, they are invited to link elbows with them. This second person then shares something about themselves to the larger group, to attract a new person to link elbows with them, and so on.
