No really… say ANYTHING:
Say Anything is a new game from North Star Games. In this fun little game, players are asked questions. What you see in the picture above was my son’s answer to the question. “What’s the best thing about being a dog?”
Boys.
The object of the game is… well… to have fun! I am not a big board game lover, but my kids are… and I love them… therefore I game.
What I enjoyed most about the game was how much my kids enjoyed playing it… Oh the giggles! And it was fun to see their creative answers. Or gross (see photo above…). It was time spent not only laughing together but also learning about how they think and what they feel is funny.
Humor development!
(see picture above)
(and yes, we tend to lean toward some poop humor in my family)
(I can accept that now)
(especially since I have a preteen boy)
We sat down to play a round just this Thanksgiving…
It took a round to figure out the scoring, but once through… it was a snap!
Here’s the skinny: the group gets asked a question, players write their answer… and a judge (who rotates each round) chooses their favorite answer to the question. Players have to guess which answer THEY think the judge will choose.
The only fall-out we had was caused my Kevin. Our dog.
He ate a purple chip.
Apparently Say Anything isn’t just a fun game, but also a yummy game.
