Customer Reviews

An excellent resource!

This is an excellent book! I work at a summer camp and always need new games to play with the kids and this book has been a wonderful source of inspiration. I'm dealing with kids that range in age from 6 to 15 and this book has games good for the entire age range. I have about 15 party & game books and this one definitely gets used more than all the others. Most of the games have been a big hit with the kids, too!

Perfect for 2 people or 50 people

180 pages of 180 seperate games. Explains rules in simple lines, details matierial/props needed and gives variations. I use for my 2years old party, wedding showers, baby showers, BBQ, or just get togethers with friends or family. I'm invited to advise on all party planning committees or fundraisers and this is my secret weapon.

GREAT!

I've just started to really look at the book and it seems great! A lot of the games that I've read seem like fun. I have an extensive collection of games but these seem different and have a lot of appeal.

This book is great for any occation!

It doesn't matter is you're planning a birthday party, a New Years Eve party, or if you're just sitting home with a friend; this book will give you something to do! The games in this book range from the simple to the silly and there are even a few with sexual themes:) Yes, this is a must-have for anyone who's tired of watching TV and wants some excitement.
