Product Description
UNBORED Games has all the smarts, creativity, and DIY spirit of the original UNBORED (“It's a book! It's a guide! It's a way of life!” -Los Angeles Magazine), but with a laser-like focus on the activities we do for pure fun: to while away a rainy day, to test our skills and stretch our imaginations-games. There are more than seventy games here, 50 of them all new, plus many more recommendations, and they cover the full gambit, from old-fashioned favorites to today's high-tech games. The book offers a gold mine of creative, constructive fun: intricate clapping games, bike rodeo, Google Earth challenges, croquet golf, capture the flag, and the best ever apps to play with Grandma, to name only a handful. Gaming is a whole culture for kids to explore, and the book will be complete with gaming history and interviews with awesome game designers. The lessons here: all games can be self-customized, or hacked. You can even make up your own games. Some could even change the world.
The original UNBORED has taken its place as a much beloved, distinctly contemporary family brand. UNBORED Games extends the franchise -- also including UNBORED Adventure -- in a new handy flexibound format, illustrated in full color throughout. This is a whole shelf of serious fun the whole family can enjoy indoors, outdoors, online and offline.

Great to review games you may have played in the pastby PeachyPat (4 out of 5 stars)

Not what I expected but that's my fault. Great book for a younger audience. Don't think older kids would get much out of it.
Fun variety of games

Variety of different games to play with the family. Some require set-up. Others are some I've never heard of before, but don't require a lot of work. Setting up a treasure hunt looks fun. Gets the little grey cells working, as Poirot would say!
Serious Fun for Everyone by Elizabeth Foy Larsen

UNBORED Games: Serious Fun for Everyone by Elizabeth Foy Larsen. Here is the perfect book for parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, babysitters, club leaders, teachers, party planners, or anyone who wants a great game reference at their fingertips. This little book is stuffed full of wonderful games for a few to a group; inside or outside; active or seated; mind stretching or just plain fun. There are also game apps suggested for those with their iPads or iPhones. I bought three of these books as Christmas gifts, I might just have to purchase another one for myself. It reminds me of a book children enjoyed from the 1960s -One Potato , Two Potato. (With just a little kid humor thrown in-burps, etc.)
