Fun and Games: Everyday Play

Fun and Games is all about what different kids do for fun. You can play dominoes or maybe a hoop-rolling game, and there are many other ideas, most of which you probably haven’t heard of before. The illustrations in this book are clear enough that you know what’s happening, but they’re not exactly detailed. The author did an excellent job of finding different games to put into the book to give kids good ideas about fun games they can play.

This book is great for kids of all ages; no specific age will like it more than another because all ages of kids can play the included games together. It’s kind of a like a trivia book because you’re learning about different games while reading a story with the games woven into it. It’s clever, creative, and so different from any other books I’ve read. It does remind me of a deck of cards called Global Kids, which also has great ideas for playing.
