Taboo

Yet another guessing game (are you sensing a theme here?) but one in which you have one word to describe, and a short list of related words that you must not say. I've had a blast playing this at parties, with one specific memory of a friend starting one round by saying, "It's this thing in Europe," and me immediately shouting out "the Eiffel tower!" and being right, to the amazement of me and my friend and everyone else playing the game (some of whom also accused us of cheating). 

Anyway . . . Finn did not really enjoy this game. He had a hard time with it, whether he was the one guessing or the one giving clues. Again, this game is better with a longer timer (3 minutes instead of 1), but even when we gave Finn 6 minutes it was still a bit difficult and frustrating for him.  

Verdict: I love this game, but we should probably let Finn get a few years older before we try to make him play it again.
