Pros: Great teacher Cons: So fun that the board needs to be larger
I love this game, but it causes arguments. Being the female half of babycarrots of course I am smarter. My spouse tends to make up words to win. Isn't it amazing how the male id(ego) will refuse to let him loose. Don't get me wrong the arguments are...
