Learning vocabulary and question/answer practice are all part of the game, naturally. These games provide the motivation and the structure for practicing conversation. The simple rules encourage players of any age to be creative and humorous. They relax and speak up, even in groups of mixed language proficiency.
There are 40 full-color, plastic-coated playing cards-10 families, each with a mother, father, daughter, and son.
Each card has 8 features: clothes, hat, shoes, expression, object, cost, transportation, and time.
