Last night I was sitting at home with my boys. The tv was on and we were, all three us, bored out of our minds. The thought came to me that this was the perfect moment for "family time" that didn't involve electronic devices. We have a closet full of board games, a pool table, and several decks of cards. However, when I asked my boys what they wanted to play they claimed they were bored with our games. I toyed with the idea of running to Walmart and getting a new game...but the thought of dealing with holiday crowds (not to mention changing back out of my pjs) was not an attractive idea.
This morning I came across this ARTICLE about a fun game you can play for free with children who have at least a 4th grade reading level. All you need is a dictionary for "The Dictionary Game", some paper and pencils, and voila! A ready-made game you can play any time that is sure to bring some laughter.
No electronic devices. Creative thinking. Humorous results.
We'll be playing this game tonight!
