So I have to do this activity day for elemantry kids, approx 10 kids.

My question is if I got taboo and pulled out certain cards and had the kids describe USING the words on the bottom that would be good for elemantry kids, right???

I have other games but I really though taboo would be fun

Scategories would be to hard I am guessing.

And if anyone knows did the game store by Kyo Dae exit 13 close?

1) elementary
2) taboo
3) too

I'm a jerk like that. The game you described sounds like...charades? I've played it with my kids. Some liked it, some didn't.

please, o please, nolegirl, tell me you were just typing with a southern accent when you chose to write "elemantry." either that or you did it on purpose to gather more responses. please. i prefer to think of you as sly like a fox. not dumb like a doorknob.

games = good.

Don't be makin fun of my southen accent plynx. I am as sly as a redneck playing a banjo, drinking moonshine and smoking a red.

and i think its dumb as a doornail not door knob. The knob joke is your mama is like a doorknob, everyone gets a turn. haha Smile

Ok, from this day forward I will make a genuine effort to spell my words correctly, I promise. Where is spell check, nobody will tell me.

Firefox has spell check. Right click on the reply box and check the 'Spell check this field' selection.

Dumb as a doorknob and Dumb as a doornail are both expression meaning the same thing, but I think that Dumb as a doorknob is used more. I think most people get Dumb as a doornail confused with dead as a doornail.

Unless your kids are uncommonly focused + high-level, I don't think Taboo will work, imho. Charades might go over better...
