How to Play Abbreviations

Play with two or more people.

Alternate being "It."

Name two letters, such as "FM," when you're It. The letters can be an abbreviation that's commonly used or can have no meaning.

Take turns making up what the letters could be an abbreviation for. There's no right answer. The point is to be creative. In our example, FM could stand for Fairly Muddy, Fried Meat or Fat Munchkin.

Play until there are no more ideas or until a time limit you choose has passed (3 minutes is good).

Use your imaginations and try not to laugh too hard.

Avoid repeating words for the same abbreviation.

Think of two new letters that haven't been used for each turn.
