Happy November! Many families have a regular game night. This might be a specific night that they meet together to play, or it may be whatever night is most convenient and fits into their schedules. Fall is a good time to begin or renew a tradition of family game night because the days are getting shorter, the evenings cooler, and kids and parents are busy all day and need a chance to reconnect.
The Countdown to Christmas Challenge for today is to play a new game. Even the youngest child
can have fun playing Memory or Go Fish. Everyone loves a good game of charades. Break out the board games that you haven’t seen in a while. Here’s a game that is perfect post-Halloween and for parents and kids alike as long as there are no more than 6 players: Spider.
To play Spider, each person needs a sheet of paper, a crayon or pencil, and 1 die (dice). Each person chooses a number from 1 to 6. The youngest person then rolls the die. If she rolls her number, then she gets to draw a circle for the body of the spider. Then the die is passed to the next person. Once each person has drawn a circle, then you start to draw the legs (8 total). If you want the game to continue, then you can add a face. The first person who completes their Spider is the winner!
Congratulations to Laurie! She is the winner of the assortment of eco-friendly giftsacks in a festive Christmas pattern from Wrapsacks™.
