40 Days-40 Days of Lenten Recipes (and Games!)
There are times when you have some waiting to do with the little people in your life and sometimes that waiting is hard to do. Whether you are trying to cut down on screen time or just have something more interactive to do together, sometimes it's the old games that are the best!
I remember playing hangman with family and friends for hours growing up. It is a great game, involves executive functioning and language and some fun visual spatial skills. As a little game, it has it all.
The problem is hanging the man. The origins of the game seem to point to Victorian times? All the same, not a visual wishing to perpetuate. A friend of mine came up with this alternative at church camp this summer and I LOVE IT!
The alternative is ...ta, ta, taaaan!
Build a church.
Here are some of the fun we had, sorry for the poor pictures, you get the idea.
Do you have any old games you have modified?
Would love to hear about them, as always looking for something fun!
