Mind-stretching brain games and

It's the perfect opportunity for sharing stories, building knowledge,
strengthening character, and having fun!
Play A Game - Stretch A Noun
In this game, players take turns naming a noun for another players to
stretch into a sentence. For example if player one named the noun
tree, then player two would be challenged to stretch the word
tree into a sentence using the letters of the word.
Tree roots enjoy earth.
Player two could then challenge player three with the noun four.
Four ornery unicorns roared.
Note that our examples used the named noun to begin each sentence.
You can follow that rule or choose to allow any words to form the sentences.
You may also want to decide whether or not you will allow connecting words
such as the, and, of, etc. to help make the sentences flow.
(Try to match the named noun with the skill level of the next player.)

Mental Math - Doubling
Start with the number 1. The first player must
double the number 1 to get the number 2. The second player doubles 2
to get 4. Player three doubles 4 to make 8. Continue doubling
each result from the previous double. How long before you have over 1
million? (Probably not as long as you think!)
