Take a seat, eat something, and join in as stories are served around the table
Welcome to my 2020 Blogging A-Z April Challenge. Each day, I will post a brief Journal On! Daily Writers’ Workshops lesson and prompt. Teachers, parents, and students may use the material to encourage daily writing practice, spark insight, and embrace mindful reflection.
Welcome back, Everyone.
Did you dig into a closet or a storage bin and find board games? Board games are a structured form of play. Playing games spark conversations and fosters harmony (so long as everyone is a good sport). Good ol’ Candyland, Chutes and Ladders, and Clue offer a playful hour or so. Rousing games of Monopoly and Risk can take a whole afternoon or evening. Cards, mancala, backgammon, chess, and the like are part of the vast list of games.
Let’s write about the turn-taking face-to-face games you play with your family. If you are not a game board game/card game family, video games are okay.
Until tomorrow, Everyone.

Board games are the best. We’ve done a few virtual game nights since the pandemic started. We actually used a regular board game too. It worked great. Weekends In Maine

Well I know what game I Don’t like lol It’s Speak Out where you put that dental device in your mouth and try to talk. I sat in awe watching my family one Thanksgiving. It made my mouth hurt and I didn’t even play. I have to admit I laughed a lot though (hanging my head)
