Friday's Fun: Which Came First?

An fun game can be built around the chronology of events and characters in the Bible. Have your guests (or in this case children) stand in line. Give the first person in line two names or two events. He is to name which came first.

So if you gave them "Peter or Paul?" the answer would be Peter (because Peter appeared in the Gospels while Paul didn't appear until Acts. If you said "Tower of Babel or Walls of Jericho?" they would answer Tower of Babel! :)

This game can also be playing for ANYTHING! (You know how a homeschooling Mom is!). Which word comes first in the dictionary? To make this one hard, try to think of words that actually would appear close in the dictionary OR use words that can be spelled the same way and have them spell the correct answer.
Which planet comes first? Which President comes first? Which event in history came came first? Or for fun, you can do birth dates (you don't have to include years for us old fogies who don't want people to know their age). For littles you can do numbers. Oh the POSSIBILITIES!!! :D
