About Board Game Blunders®
The Blunders® board game teaches children ages 5 to 10 about social and dining etiquette in the most unique, interactive and entertaining way ever imagined. Children love Blunders® because it is about the four endearing characters of Becky, Bobby, Brenda, and Billy Blunder and players laugh as they learn while trying to help the Blunders learn better manners.
The game includes 300 charade, multiple choice, scenario, and true/false questions, a unique “Meet the Blunders” story booklet, a hand-illustrated game board with “seek and find” objects, four pawns of the Blunder children, table setting cards, reward tokens, and two dice for alternate types of play.
Blunders® is the perfect game for playing at home, school, or with any social club or group, it is multi-cultural, is based on universal values, and develops all styles of learning. According to a child psychiatrist, Blunders® is the ideal game to play with children with special needs.
Blunders®, children will learn how to:
- Set the table correctly and use polite table manners.
- Introduce themselves and others with confidence.
- Be a polite guest and gracious host.
