Birthday Party Idea: Play Taboo Game

Taboo Game - AreYouGame.com: "Here's truly unspeakable fun! You've got to think fast, talk fast and avoid saying TABOO words. If your team shouts out the correct secret word, you get a point. But be careful! Your opponents will be looking over your shoulder, making sure you don't say any of the TABOO words. If you do and they catch you, they sound the buzzer and score the point! Includes 504 TABOO cards, card holder, buzzer, timer, score pad. 2 AA batteries required (not included). For 4 or more players.

I need more cards, I've played this game so much.
A year ago a friend bought this game to a party. I loved it so much on my way home I went to the store and bought one. I have played it so much with family, friends and anyone who visits me, that I need more cards. I wish I could buy cards in different editions. My family ranges in ages from 8 to 55, and we all love this game. I've given a copy of this game to every household I frequent to make sure I can play wherever I go."


A family birthday party needs entertainment for a wide range of ages and this game fits the bill. The only way I see this not working is if there's a party-pooper / spoilsport type in the crowd. See if you can assign him or her the job of serving refreshments or something, whatever floats their boat and keeps them happy while the rest of you play and laugh yourselves silly. CLICK HERE
