Party games for kids and adults (instructions included):

The Meaning of Sayings:

The cover photo of this book is a picture of our hometown in Connecticut that my family drew. We'll fact check it, but I don't think we own a cab, that there are princesses or a ghost of Abraham Lincoln. We framed it.
Misunderstandings:
How do YOU say it?
Question:
Is it worth your "while" or worth your "wild"?
Answer:
"while"
Explanation:

Did You KNOW?
Question:
Why does the daylight savings change always occur at 2AM Eastern Standard Time?
Answer:
Daylight savings is the practice of advancing clocks to make better use of the longer daylight available during the summertime so that darkness falls at a later clock time. When daylight savings time was born in the United States, there were no trains leaving the station at 2AM on Sundays in New York City, so it was the best time to switch the clock.
The Rest of It:
Games, Puzzles, Crafts & Songs:
There are many other virtually interactive puzzles, trivia (A LOT OF IT), crosswords, word searches and crafts, and a lot of song and art ideas. Fun games that the kids play: example "What Would You Rather?". The list is endless and has been vetted by my family (we play my idea every week, I only included the hits and eliminated the duds). You can create interactions using hometown trivia, interests, personal jokes, nicknames and the like to get a lot of laughs from your audience.
Summary:
Enclosed in this book is a fabulous funny adventure. Use the content for ideas, but more importantly, use it to spur your imagination as a guide for new games you create and play with your own friends and family!
