Prepare To Laugh With Telestrations!

My family has always been big on playing games. Every year for Christmas we get a new one and just love playing it with our friends and extended family. Well we have a new one that has already been a hit and will keep on being a hit!!

I was thrilled when I got the chance through Tryazon to play this amazing game with some friends!! It is a hoot!!


The game is really easy, once you can get every one settled down enough to play and explain it. I think half our fun came from explaining the game to each other. It's kind of like that old game called Telephone. You start with a word or phrase and say it to your neighbor, and they say to the next, and then the next, and so on. You finally end up with some crazy thing by the time it gets back to the original person. 

Here's what you get in the game...


With Telestrations you start out with a word or phase, any number of things they give you on one of the cards in the deck they provide. You write the word down in a very handy little booklet made up of wipe-off pages. This is where the twist comes in. After you write the word or phrase you or the next player draws the word or phrase. The next person looks at the drawing (not the word) and guesses what it is and writes the word or phrase. The next draws, the next guesses, and so on. Well with the pictures added to the whole thing you never know what you are going to come up with! Let's just say that they should offer the game with a case of Depends because the laughter never seems to stops!!

Here is an example, although no where near as funny as anything we came up with!!


The game is super funny and you really don't know what is going to happen. It all depends on what each person thinks they are looking at in the drawings. Some of us can draw well, some not so much, and that is where the fun really gets going.

All set to play!!

Jessica was concentrating hard on this one!

Tim's face shows how much we were laughing! He turned a lovely shade of red!

The inevitable tighty whities! No embarrassment there!

Veronica loved the game a lot!

Happy game night for all of us! Jonathan Loved it!

So, what do my friends and I think about the game? Well since the party we have played it again and everyone keeps asking me when we can play it some more. If you see the game out there buy it now, they sell out fast. I have a feeling it will be a big hit with your family!  This is by far one of the BEST games in a long, long time!! Thanks USAopoly for this crazy, wild, and fun game! 
It's a BIG hit!!

A Fun Family Game For Young & Old, Indoors Or Outdoors

Family fun time is something I miss a lot with my kids now that they are grown, so I am happy to have some young ones in my life that I still get to play games with and enjoy their company.


One way we love to have fun is with games, especially ones that can be played inside and outside. Mabua makes a fun Ring Toss Game for Kids and Adults that is perfect for indoors and outdoors.


The game arrives in a box with everything you need to play the game and to store the game. There are two cross bars that are notched to connect with each other. Each one is pre-painted and has score numbers by holes on the wood where the pegs go. There are 5 pegs, each a different color that have a rounded end and an end with a screw mounted in it to attach them to the boards. All of the screw in easy and there is no specific spot you have to put them. That is your decision. The center peg holds the boards in place together and it is very sturdy. I was really pleased with how well this was made.


The game also comes with 5 round pieces of rope that have big beads on them that are the five colors of the pegs. They are sturdy but do have some give for easy grasping and tossing, as well as storing. Which brings me to the other thing that comes with this set, and something I really like a lot, a small carry/storage bag. This is fantastic. You can store everything easily in it and know exactly where all the pieces are. They won't get jumbled around with everything else or lost.


The game really does not have specific rules other than trying to get the rings over the pegs. You can come up with all kinds of variations for play from matching the color of the bead on the ring with the peg, doing math problems, letting someone toss all of them and accumulate a point total. You can give points for ringing the peg, getting close, and being closer than your opponent.  How you play generally will be determined by who is playing and how difficult or easy you want to make it.


This is a fun game that we are enjoying and will enjoy a lot in the future, and I LOVE the little storage bag making it easy to pack away and to carry along on a day trip or camping! It takes up very little room and can be tucked in the trunk.
