You Gotta Be Kidding!
For Christmas, the kids received this fun new board game called You Gotta Be Kidding. It's a game that asks you to choose between wacky scenarios, such as, "Would you rather leave a trail of slime everywhere you go, or a cloud of smoke?" Or, "Would you rather eat a cup of sand, or a sandwich made with hair?"
It's the kind of game that gets kids thinking and talking. Oh, and laughing too. There's been plenty of laughter the 5 or 6 times we've played it.
It's a fun family game, suitable for all ages, and the best part is that it takes a relatively short amount of time to play. You'll be done in under 30 minutes, almost guaranteeing that nobody in the family will grow weary of the game. It's a great alternative to those marathon sessions of Risk and Monopoly.
There's one part of You Gotta Be Kidding that involves a challenge to the player to find a specific item in the house within 30 seconds, like "something small and furry" or "something round and blue."
My daughter received a challenge to find "something wrinkly." Not even hesitating, she marched right over to me, grabbed my face, and said, "How about this?"

Ouch!
Smoke and sand would be my answers. Sounds like a fun game. Except for the wrinkly part. :)
Sounds like t he perfect game for my wee one's birthday.
We used to ask questions like this at the dinner table when I was growing up. Kind of like a habit we fell in, but with a younger brother it usually ended up with something like, "Would you rather be boogers or toejam", so good to have some guidance.
Thanks for sharing!
What can I say, she seems a wise gal!
Sounds like a great game. Our family loves games also.
Your daughter sounds like a hoot. When our girls were young and were misbehaving I'd always tell them "don't make me get ugly", meaning; don't make me yell at you (we always hated yelling and thought it was rather ugly to do).
Anyway, then the girls would say "too late".
They are more or less grown now (26 & 17) and they still have that wacky sense of humor.
We are always looking for fun family games...Apples to Apples seems to be a fave...but you have to have more than 4 people to be really fun...thanks for the review
Just be thankful you didn't get chosen for small and furry.
What?
You could have been round and blue.
you gotta love her for that! Sound like a great game, I'll check our shops out for it because I just dont' like the time Monopoly takes.
So, she's brutally honest, eh?
I LOVE games like that, we are Apples to Apples people as well. And Dictionary Defination....my favorites.
