Group Game – The Perfect Game for Families & Groups of Any Size

Have you ever gone online and typed in: “group games” or “fun group games” and all you find are silly and childish games? I know I have! I get somewhat frustrated when I am looking for fun adult group games, but I get games geared towards kids or families with kids.

Well, I want to put an end to this once and for all! While there are many fun group games out there, I wanted to include just one of them (below) that is a blast for adults, parents, groups, etc. It is perfect for the next date night, game night, family night, party, or family reunion – but really for any type of small or large group game setting. Have fun, and let me know how you enjoyed it!

NOUN GAME

# of Players: 6 or more

Objects Needed: Nothing

Begin by having 3 people leave the room. Those remaining will choose 3 things to be acted out: a person, place, and thing. These “nouns” can be anything – any person, any place, or any thing. Then, player 1 of the 3 who left the room will come back in, while the other two who left will stay in the other room where they can’t see or hear. Player 1 will then choose one of the people from the group who stayed, and that person chosen will have to act out the person. Without talking, the person chosen from the group will then have to act out the person (actors only get 30 seconds, and they can only act it out once). At this point, Player 1 does not guess who they think the person is; they will then ask a different person from the group to now act out the place. Following that, Player 1 will also not guess what they think the place is, but they will again ask another different person to act out the thing. After all 3 nouns have been acted out, Player 1 will still not guess what they think each noun is.

Then, Player 2 of the 3 who left the room will then come back in, and now Player 1 will have to act out each of the 3 noun’s (the person, place, and thing) to Player 2. Again, no talking, and only 30 seconds to act out each noun. Player 2 will also not guess what they think each noun is, but will have to act out the nouns to Player 3. After player 2 acts out all three nouns, Player 3 will then guess what they think each noun is. Of course, it gets very funny when the acting changes over the rounds, or people do not know what one of the nouns are, but they have to act anyway.

To make the game more competitive, divide the group into two teams and keep points. So, 3 teammates will go out, and when the 3rd person guesses, that team will get one point for every correct guess. Then, the next team will send 3 out, and this repeats. The first team to score 10 points wins.

If they are to remain on the rug…small body movement games like “Where is Thumbkin”, act out stories on the felt board, “Weather watcher” where one child goes to the window while the others sing the song, “Head, shoulders, knees and toes”, etc…and the all time stand-bye…read them a story!

Men dating women with kids. Is his lack of involvement a bad sign or am I expecting too much.?

First of all, my children are 16 and 20. I also have a grandchild. My BF and I have dated for 4 years. We do not live together nor are we engaged. So, does this mean that he isn’t obligated to be a part of my children’s life? He gets along with my kids just fine. And he has taken to my grandson. But he doesn’t participate in family activities whether in a small group or a large group. He doesn’t come to games, weddings, graduations, holidays, birthdays. He doesn’t buy gifts or cards. He makes up excuses or conveniently forgets to come over. However, when it comes to his family, we are expected to attend their gatherings. Am I expecting too much or is his lack of involvement a bad sign?

I was okay with it until I got to the part where you are “expected to attend” his family gatherings.
What’s good for the goose, as they say.
Some people are just not into the family activities and events. Not a problem. But if he wants you to be involved in his family, he should be reciprocating.
