We went to chick fil e for lunch one saturday while we were "in town" The kids love playing there and the food is somewhat better than other fast food. In the kids meal there was a sample of a game called Dinner Games. Jared loved them. So he looked up the real game and bought it. Our kids love playing games and you can only play candyland, and guess who so many times. So it was nice to add a new game into our mix. We have been trying to do more things as a family that don't involve electronics. So this was great. Plus we find it better to distract our kids at dinner time and they will actually eat more. It is in a smallish box that is metal so you could easily take it with you on a trip or to grandmas house.
The cards are pretty good. They have different categories like Memory, phonics vocabulary, numbers and math, silly, social skills, creative and critical thinking. I love that there is a variety and that they are labeled. So if your child needs more social skills or whatever category you can pick those cards out and use those.
Here are some of the cards for an example
We even play this just at night after dinner. The kids love it. They will pick it out and bring it to us and say lets play this game. There are quite a few that are for older kids, I think the game says 6-13 or something. I am glad that there is a range of ages. We love that this has dinner ideas because we like dinner time to be family time. We get to talk and have fun. I am glad that there are games like this that are creative and fun. Sometimes you just need that extra help in starting the conversations and fun at dinner.
