A simple silly game that encourages imaginative game play for 2 or more players.

          I love to create games. One day my then two very young daughters said, "Why don’t you make a game we can play?" So, I thought it'd be fun to create a game together that we could all play. I gave them some coins for their playing pieces, and found a die to get us started. One of my daughters preferred to use a doll shoe for her playing piece instead, and then my other daughter had to find something to be her piece. We started with a bunch of round circles on the board for spaces, and then linked them together with a single line that made a loop. Written in each circle was something that a player had to do when they landed on it. The game didn't have much color with just the circles with words in them, and so I got some crayons and they added some color to the circles and the board, which they enjoyed doing and also made the game a lot cooler looking. We had a lot of fun creating and playing the game that we called the silly game.

          I made a small revision since the first game, but the idea behind the game is still there. Now there are four categories designated by four shapes. Circle-make a face, Square-make a sound or noise, Triangle-do an activity, and Star-make believe you are something. Players move their pieces around the board and do what the spaces say to score that shape. There is a picture in with each shape that goes along with the activity. The first player to score two of each of the four shapes wins the game.

Note: It still needs to be colored in with some crayons, but that's part of the fun.
