This is always a carnival favorite!

You’ll need:
A tent, booth or other space that provides a little privacy
A small table covered in bright cloth
Two chairs
A lamp with a dim light bulb or scarf over the shade
A tape or CD player and eerie music
A “gypsy” or “fortune teller” costume, such as bright flowing clothing, a turban, bandanas, scarves and lots of jingling jewelry
A cup and saucer with tea leaves, playing cards, or a crystal ball
Fortunes – a list of ideas for fortunes that predict a future event

Set up and play:
Play eerie music in the background to set an atmosphere of mystery.
Have the fortune-teller read palms, read tea leaves, or read the future in playing cards or a crystal ball.
Be sure to tell only good or silly fortunes – no disasters!
