Hello all, I was just thinking of something we could play for a game in a letter that might break up the boredom for our loved ones on the row ok you think up like 7or 8 letters how ever many you want . Then they have to make as many words out of it that they can. And we have to make as many words as we can. Then see how many matching words we have with theres. and who has the most words is the winner. You can decide if they have to be 3-or 4 or 5 letter words to make up out of the letters. I think I am going to try it and see if my guy likes it also does anyone know of anyother games you can play through letters please post as i think would be a good past time. Thanks All Peace and Love Mary

I think that is a great idea! I have 3 penpals on death row, and i know they get very bored and lonely. So I think this is a wonderful way to pass some time with FUN!:p

Yes. it's the same game we play in the game room..Like you make a five letter word like "Pepsi" and with each letter you have to make a sentence that makes sense
" Pets eat people sometimes instantly" see like that..then The who am i game is you give 4 hints and describe a person and the other person has to guess who it is in one try.

oh the five question game is you ask five questions and the other person has to answer them..then he/she asks you five questions and you have to answer.

i use www.puzzlemaker.com sometimes to print out different puzzles, games, and mazes.
i have also went to http://www.varietygames.com/CW/ and made personalize crossword puzzles with my own clues. it is amazing how much and how little different pen pals know about you when they get to working on a crossword puzzle like this.

Thats excellent idea :)

Mary, Babieboo and Mama these are all excellent ideas, since most of the guys are locked up 23/7 it will break the boardem for them. Plus I think it will be fun for you also and gives you something to help pass the time and also something to look forward too.

A game I enjoy playing with my man is "you start and I finish" One of us starts a story and the other one finishes it. This works very well with "love letters" We also like to give each other a scenerio and pick five items ( you can pick as many as you want) the other person has to follow the scenerio and use the items in their story.

Hey coopergirl when i was pregnant we used to make up many stories like the one you are talking about it. The other idea is also great
