"Bigger and Better" where teams trade small objects for progressively larger items through introductions and negotiations. The team with the most valuable item wins. 3. "Stranded on an Island" asks teams to each choose one item they would bring if stranded, then work together to explain how they could survive using those items. Teams then present their survival plans.
