Another Hidden Meaning Brain Teaser Game
Brain Teasers are a great way to challenge the brain and have a little fun. Check out this printable brain teaser game with the answers that you an play at your Divergent party or anytime you need a little brain stretch.
Ever since I had our Divergent dinner party and posted all the fun games that we played, the Hidden Meaning Brain Teaser game for Erudite has been a popular printable. I've gotten so many requests for more brain teaser printable games.
Today, I'm sharing a new one that I made while being laid up on bed rest this month. I know my boys love these because of the fun challenge the word games create. You can have fun and challenge your brain at the same time.
To save this game printable, click on the brain teaser below and it will open in a new window on your computer. Then right click to save the picture file to your computer. This should allow you to be able to go in and use your computer's print program to print it.
If you'd rather have it as a PDF file, you can find that brain teaser printable game here.
To play the game, hand every guest a copy of the Hidden Meaning Brain Teaser and a pen or pencil. They must decipher the meaning of the words and pictures in each square.
For example, in the first square, you have the word "PERSONALITY" with a break in between the word. The picture stands for "Split Personality".
And since what good is a brain teaser if you don't have the answers, here are the brain teaser answers to the word game above

Divergent Party Invitation Printable
The Divergent movie comes out tomorrow. I'm so excited, but a little worried that it will not live up to the hype. Have you ever felt that way? Book to movies are either wonderful or terrible. Fortunatly, I am pretty easy going when it comes to just enjoying movies and not picking them apart, but I am a little worried.
I'm trying not to think about it and just enjoy the time spent in putting the pre-movie party together with activities for each of the different factions and fun treats for them. If I can just get my kids to stop eating all the desserts, I think we'll be okay and I can finally share with you the final Divergent printable.
After all, you can't attend a Choosing Ceremony without an official invite can you?
Simply download and open it in free Adobe Acrobat. If you don't have Adobe you can get it HERE for free.
Now just hit "PRINT". Cut out the 5x7 inch invitation and Send!
Quick and Easy Cinnamon Roll Recipe
When I was growing up, we had a lady in our Church who made the most AHHMAZZING Cinnamon Rolls ever. Whenever we had a fundraiser auction, she would make these rolls and they would be the HOT item. As kids, we were pretty limited in our money stash, so it was a sad day to see these rolls go to some other home.
Finally, my brother figured out a way to get the coveted rolls. He would do chores for the family and in return, this Cinnamon Roll Goddess would make him these rolls as a Thank You.
Pretty impressive thinking for a boy if you would have asked my thirteen year old self.
So whenever I think of service, these cinnamon rolls come to mind. Since the Abnegation faction in the Divergent series is all about serving others, I decided these Quick and Easy Cinnamon rolls were going to have to come to our Divergent party.
Start by adding a 1/3 cup sugar, 3 Tablespoons of yeast, 1/2 cup oil, and 1 1/4 cup of warm water in a large bowl. Mix until the yeast is dissolved.
Cover and let stand in a warm place for about 15 minutes.
Blend 2 eggs into the yeast mixture.
Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt into 5 1/4 cup of flour.
Gradually add to yeast mixture until a soft dough forms.
Kneed the dough on a slightly floured surface for about 5 minutes.
This is great for the kids to get a little bit of energy out and feel like they are helping and having fun.
Roll the dough out into a rectangle.
Brush with 1/4 cup melted butter. Combine 1 1/2 Tablespoons cinnamon with 1/2 cup sugar and sprinkle over butter.
Roll the rectangle up and cut into slices.
Place the rolls in an ungreased cake pan. Let rise for 10 minutes.
Bake at 425 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown.
While the cinnamon rolls are baking, mix 2 cups of powdered sugar, 1 tsp softened butter, and 1/4 cup hot water until well blended.
Drizzle over the rolls while still warm.

10 Service Projects for Kids
In the Divergent world, the Abnegation faction is all about service and selflessness.
Therefore when trying to find a game for the Abnegation faction at my Divergent party, I decided I needed to look at activities that were about helping others.
I scoured the internet and found 10 Service Project Ideas for kids that we could do during our Divergent party.
Dauntless Cake AKA Chocolate Cherry Truffle Cake
I've been thinking about this Dauntless cake ever since reading about it in the Divergent book.
What do you think it tastes like? Is it so yummy because they don't have many sweet things in their life? Is it a pure chocolate cake? Why does cake batter taste so good before it's cooked? (Okay, maybe I'm getting off tangent here...)

Divergent Faction Table Cards
I love to have themed food when I throw a party. There's just something extra fun about eating marshmallows designed as "Cheshire Cat Tales" or donuts named "Munchkin Holes."
So of course, our Divergent party needs to have there very own Divergent Faction Table card printables.

Banana Bark Candy Recipe for Faction Eurdite
The Erudite faction is all about knowledge and learning, so I would imagine any treats they would bring to a Divergent Party would be considered brain food.
In an effort to make yummy brain food, I decided to make some dark chocolate banana bark candy.
