Fingers

You may be thinking, “Uh.  This photo is kind of . . . not that great.”

Well.

This might look like a blurry, poorly executed attempt at the classic “tiny hands” photograph.

But it is not.

It is actually a photograph of a game.

(Probably not truly invented by Keigley kids, but don’t tell them that please.)

It’s a game alright.

A game called

Fingers.

It travels anywhere.

And it costs nothing.

And I would say it might even be worthy of making one of Tyler Stanton’s boredom-busting games posts.  (Are you reading this Tyler?  Remember how you said you would write a guest post for me one day?  What day is that Tyler?)

All you need to play this game is

you guessed it

your fingers!

Your fingers can do anything.

Walk around.  Jump.  Climb things.  Smash stuff.  Cause general upheaval.

You can make your fingers talk

simply by using your own voice.

Mix it up with an accent if you are feeling squirrely.

Here’s a few great locations to bring out Fingers.

While waiting in line at the grocery store.

Waiting for your food to arrive at your table.

Sitting in the backseat of the car on a long drive.

And generally any time or place that you find yourself

with time on your hands,

but nothing in your hands.

    That is so funny because I thought my kids were the only ones who played that game. They call it froggers and have all kinds of characters; frogger, girl froggers, aunt Betsy and on and on. Last we counted there were about 100 frogger characters!

    Hysterical. Oh, the visual images that came to mind as I imagined your kids (and remember my kids) playing this game : ) !!
