In this picture quiz, all members have to do is to match the pictures which are homophones or homonyms of each other (sound the same or alike).

Once they have matched pictures as the reasons why and allow time for reminiscences and discussion.

I've made it so that screenshots can be taken and printed off as handouts for the two sheets to be cross examined.

I hope your group has fun with this. Please do let me know in comments.
