Something that works well
Going on a trip
Here's another idea:
Start with a sentence such as "I am going to the moon/When I go to the moon/I will go to the moon/a party/a desert island and I will bring..... (adjust sentence according to your lesson plan and tenses they've learned).
In order to join you on the trip, each pupil must bring something that fits the rule you've chosen, except that you don't tell them what the rule is - they have to figure it out. Some examples - a word beginning with the same letter as each person's first name, a word beginning with the last letter of the previous word, words that contain double letters, etc. The game continues until each pupil has found at least one object that he/she can bring.
It was such an interesting video. I will try them with my students
