This weeks question:
What is your favorite board game?
I love, love, LOVE Monopoly! Monopoly has been my favorite game for as long as I can remember. I love playing against my husband because I win every time.










Our entire household LOVES the game Camp. It is the perfect game for ALL ages. Each person answers a nature question based on their level. The goal is to get to the campsite first.
Wow, Jackie I have never heard of this game either! Sounds like a lot of fun, and a good game to play for homeschool. I will have to check it out. Thanks for commenting!

Speed Scrabble. Okay it’s not a separate game from Scrabble, you just use the tiles from the Scrabble game. Each player builds their own crossword puzzle with the tiles. The tiles are all turned face down in the center of the table. Each player takes 7 tiles to start. When everyone is ready, someone says “flip” and everyone flips over their 7 tiles and starts to makes words. The words have to connect to each other in their own puzzle, like a crossword puzzle. The same word rules apply as in the board game (no proper nouns, no foreign languages, etc.). Once you’ve connected all your tiles in your puzzle, you say flip and everyone grabs one tile from the pile. Each time someone has used all their tiles in their puzzle, they say flip. So, even though you may not have used all your tiles yet, you still have to draw another one. Play until all the tiles are gone from the draw pile and game ends when one player use all their tiles in their puzzle. the key to winning is knowing lots of two letter words. The winner is determined by the highest score. Count the scores on each of the tiles used in your puzzle. When a tile is used twice, the score counts twice. It’s fun and kids and adults love it!
Oh, I do love Scrabble, but I always got a kick out of playing Life. It was just fun! We enjoy playing games and plan to stock up for Christmas this year – get some games our girls can start playing with us…
