365 Family Games and Pastimes



A year-round treasure trove of games, hobbies and pastimes - from cribbage and consequences through recipes and magic tricks, to sardines and forfeits.

Remember Blind Man's Bluff, Pin the Tail and Murder in the Dark? Making daisy chains and collecting conkers? And when rainy afternoons meant card games and battleships?

Jam-packed with games and activities for all ages, 365 Family Games and Pastimes remembers all the classics we used to love, bringing them back for the entire family to enjoy.

Full of inspiration and thrifty ideas, this is an indispensible collection for birthday parties, family holidays and everyday fun.
