Omg, how is 3 legged race not in her list? It's like the worst of everything. I mean first there's physical contact with other people who might be opposite sex. Second, you're tying people up which just screams bondage/shades of gray, right??? Third, it's completely dangerous- I shattered my ankle at 3 legged race.
Sadly, that last one is true. I had surgery, 2 pins, 13 screws and a titanium plate reside in my able and leg after the last 3 legged race I ran. And I was an adult.
You know, it might be best if her kids just sit in a padded room and read books that she has prescreened. Someone else will have to turn the pages though because paper cuts.
Oh hi kids!! I'm Bobby's mom. I'm just here at your high school party to make sure Bobby doesn't play Truth or Dare. Or, you know, that Ouija board. Pretend I'm not here! I will be knitting in the corner.

I am going to make a list of games I won't allow my kids to play, and show it to them when they get home. I am going to start with spill the beans because those damn things end up everywhere. For the article writer, she left out quarters and flip cup. She should definitely tell her kids not to play quarters or flip cup, no good can come of it, especially at parties where they are serving "punch".
3 dangerous games thrown in with childhood faves? WTH.
H and DD play the don't smile game all the time. I better seriously consider my marriage vows (but then again from a fundie perspective, nothing breaks those vows, right?). Or you know...it also gets her to shut up in the car when we're on hour 8 of talking.
I think I'm going to have my kids play Bible Bingo. First one to find a verse puts a chip on the appropriate slot on the card. Winner gets a hymn sung by me...Otherwise you know..immoral gambling...and all....
I really thought from the title this was going to be a useful blog post about which games are too loud or have too many small pieces and are annoying to clean up. This is much better, though.
Oh yes. Never purchase the wheels on the bus game. It is torture for all.
I wonder if the writer's kids really agree with her, or if they're off playing Ouija board and Twister when their mom thinks their at Bible Study.
