Vox Publica

I just got an older set of the 20 Questions for Kids game at Thriftown (for under $2 - it retails for over $28) and Mika and I was surprised at how enjoyable the game is. Basically, the game has 150 cards, each with the name of a person, place, thing or year. There are 20 clues as to what the item in question is - the quicker you guess, the more you score. The game comes with a playing board, chips and playing pieces - but they're not that useful when just playing with two people. The fun part, after all, are the questions.

I was quite surprised at how even Mika and I were in our play ability. It was just as easy or hard for me to guess as for her. I love games in which adults don't have too much of an advantage.
