Game: I Went to the Store - Short Lesson
By:sam
In this game, the first player will start the game by saying 'I went to the store, and I bought...', followed by something that starts with the letter 'A'. The next person says the same thing (including what the previous player said), and adds something that starts with the letter 'B'. If you manage to keep a game going to 'Z', you can start a new alphabet.
An example of a short game would be something like this:
1. I went to the store, and I bought an apple.
2. I went to the store, and I bought an apple, and a banana.
3. I went to the store, and I bought an apple, a banana, and a cookie.
4. I went to the store, and I bought an apple, a banana, a cookie, and a doormat.
5. I went to the store, and I bought an apple, a banana, a cookie, a doormat, and an envelope.
If a player forgets what one of the letters is supposed to be, they are out. The last player remaining wins.
