Game Schooling - Mad Libs card game

Mane LOVES Mad Libs. I don't think I can express in words just how happy Mad Libs make her. If we get her nothing but Mad Libs books for her birthday, Christmas, and Chanukah this year, she would be over the moon. This is serious.

So, when I saw a Mad Libs card game at the thrift store for $1 the other day, I bought it. Don't let the serious face fool you, Mad Libs require your full attention:

As most of you probably know (but just in case you don't), Mad Libs are great for learning parts of speech and sentence construction. The game is played like Rummy, requiring players to make sentences of different lengths for each of six rounds. Cards are color coded for parts of speech.

We'd love to see Mad Libs get rid of the words "weirdo" and "dummy," though, and we'd love to see extension sets with better vocabulary. This game, which can be played similarly, is on our wish list: You've Been Sentenced.
