Connect with the Heart of Your Child: the Ungame

Apparently it was a hit in the '70s, and I've been intrigued by it.  What is it?  Well, it's the UnGame!  (I feel like there should be some sort of cheesy echo after I say that...like "Spatula City"...anyone know that movie reference?)  Anyway, there are several different versions of the Ungame, and I own two of them...hoping to get more.  I have the "all ages" edition and also the "Christian" edition.  Basically, the ungame is a conversation starter.  It's a way to get connected, learn new things about each other...shut up those of us (ahem) who talk to much, and give opportunity to those who don't talk enough.  I've played it with a couple different groups now, and it has been fun and enlightening.    I will say, though, that this would probably be good for kids 5 and older-- I think even the kids version is suggested for kids over 5.  Just another tool that might help you connect with the heart of your child.
