My Thoughts

This game was fun!  It’s recommended for ages 8 and up and 3-10 players.  The first time we played was with my husband and his parents and we had a great time!  The types of crazy sentences you create is hysterical.  It is a very unique, thought-provoking, yet laid back type of game.  I look forward to many more laughter filled evenings playing it.

This would be a fabulous game to help kids develop sentences correctly in a fun and relaxed environment.

I am happy to announce that the wonderful people at McNeil Designs has offered to donate a game to giveaway to one lucky Embracing Beauty reader!
