A huge thanks to Jake Bouma for donating today’s Freebie Friday! He created an icebreaker called “Pseudonyms” that encourages kids to be pretty creative as they come up with new names for themselves. Be sure to check out Jake’s blog at http://www.jakebouma.com/ and thank him for his contribution to all of our ministries.

Here’s his description:

It’s a single page sheet that asks you to combine words to make funny names for yourself, such as your “Rockstar name”, “Hippie name,” and “Spy name.” I was inspired to put this together by a meme I saw floating around the blogosphere. I used it with both my junior and senior highers and we had a hilarious time reading some of our answers.
