In November, our monthly theme is GAMES.
Let’s play our monthly alphabet game.
Let’s find words that are related to games, game pieces, etc.
Who will start?
E = Euchre (I had to look up the spelling — it’s a card game). Ah, dominos…I remember playing that long ago and far away. This game is bringing back memories.
Oh Euchre!! When I met my husband, his family was regularly playing that and I had never heard of it so the first few years, I was just watching while they played (luckily, I was the 5th person in the room). Eventually, I learned and as the times changed, we had our weekly Sunday night card games. For several years afterward.
(is it the same game where you play only with the cards 9 and up?)
Gin Rummy A card game we played when I was a kid. We had a hardcover notebook to keep records of the scores .
J = Jacks. I remember spending hours playing that game….it was great because it could be played alone or with another person.
o = Old Maid (I imagine they call this game something else now but in my early days, this was its name; and now it’s mine).
Q is for Quoits the game you played by throwing a round hoop to get it over a pole from so many feet away.
R = Rubix cube.
Used to drive me nuts trying to get all the same colours in one place, whereas my young son could do it in seconds.
