Feeling bored now that your school routine is in full swing? Missing the nonstop adventure of a day at Hillcroft? Well look no further, because we have created a small list of some indoor games you can enjoy at home this year!

“G-H-O-S-T” -The first player says a letter. The next person adds a letter, attempting to spell a word. For example, the beginning of a round might sound like this: "E." "N." "G." "A." The one saying the final letter of a word more then 3 letters long loses. Every time a person loses they earn a letter from GHOST (like in the game HORSE) The first person to lose 5 times and therefore spell GHOST is out. Continue play until there is a winner.

“Would You Rather?” – designed to help players learn about each other, this game is set up in a circle. Each player takes a turn asking a “would you rather…. Or ….?” Question to the group. For example, “Would you rather eat only tomatoes for the rest of your life, or never eat a tomato again?” Everyone will have to pick one choice, and then continue around the circle asking questions.

“I’m Going to a Picnic” (best played with a large group) – Again, players will begin in a circle. The first player says “I’m going to a picnic and I’m going to bring…” and selects a food with the starting letter “A” to bring. The next person will repeat what the first player said, then add a food with the starting letter “B”. This will continue in alphabetical order around the circle, creating a long list of foods that must be memorized. ( Example: “I’m going to a picnic and I’m going to bring an apple, a banana, a crossaint, a devil’s food cake….etc”)

Try these games on a rainy day with some friends, or in class one day with your teacher! They’ll make any day fun just like here at Hillcroft!
