We've enjoyed these games for quite awhile. They are perfect gifts for the entire family. We love game night and the kids learn so much from these games AND have fun. That's the best kind of learning!! They are perfect for those rainy days when the kids say they are bored or for fun family game night.
This sentence-building game uses unique five-sided cards with multiple conjugations of a base word. With a hand of 10 cards, players try to score the most points per round by constructing the longest, grammatically correct, and sensible sentence. Any player can object to another players sentence, on either grammatical grounds, or the fact that the sentence just doesn't make sense. The defending player and the objecting player get to argue their points to the rest of the players, who form a jury. Half the fun is trying to defend, explain, and justify a completely ridiculous sentence to the other players. First player to reach 200 points wins. McNeill Designs has 5 add on decks too! $25

The second game was Twisted Fish. This was my 7 yr old's favorite! She loved the colors and funky fish designs. Twisted Fish is a fishy game of outrageous fun! It's Go Fish, with a twist! Players compete to gather the most points possible by collecting as many ‘Full Baskets' as they can. A Full Basket is complete set of the same ‘Twisted Fish'. The twist comes in the form of 8 special ‘Zinger' cards which allow the players to flout the rules, steal cards from other players, prevent other players from fishing, or go again out of order! $10
This was my favorite! The wheel of Chore-ture! I have this on my fridge and I tell the girls to
spin it to see what chore they need to do.
They spin, go do their chore then run back so they can spin again. Who knew it could be so simple? $3
