The next person then repeats the first line and adds another item, "I'm going to the beach and I'm going to bring my flip flops and my sun lotion".
Play continues around the group with each person repeating the items mentioned and adding their own at the end. Each player must begin with the phrase "I'm going to the beach and..." and try to list all items in the correct order. The game starts over when someone forgets an item or gets the order wrong.
It's also fun to change the opening line. Instead of the beach you can go to the park, the market, Grandma's house, or wherever you choose.
