I used to love playing that game in school!
I still love it. I guess I’m just a child at heart. Over Christmas, one of my nephews wanted to time my sister and me with this game, and he chose all the words. We were amazed at how often my sister and I got exactly the same number of words in the same amount of time — but they were not the same words. Some of them were the same, of course, but we each had quite a few different words each.
Never too old to exercise the brain. 🙂
Right now we need to turn our thermostat up. Brrrrrrr!
