dinner table games

My family has enjoyed the dinner table together for years. We didn’t realize how much fun the table could be, however, until we added a large world map covered by a plastic table cloth to the mix. My husband would start with “I am standing in a place that is _______, where am I?”. My kids would search high and low, discuss the clue among themselves then provide an answer, sometime wrong and more clues are given until they guess correctly. For some reason they can find mass amounts of humor in this, but that shouldn’t be surprising, my kidlets can find humor in a stick.

This little game has changed a bit and a number of new games have been invented since. Making up new dinner table games has become a game in itself. In my quest to find something new to try I found an actual dinner table game collection! I was so excited and since we purchase a new game for our homeschool every month I decided this would be September’s game buy and purchased it right away!

I am sure my kids will have loads of fun with this one!
