Anyone who can read and write can play Baffle Gab™! 
OBJECT OF THE GAME
Write a silly sentence or story with the 5 words given each round before the timer runs out. You earn Bone Bucks for every word used correctly. The first person to get 100 Bone Bucks wins!
Kids learn vocabulary, grammar, creative writing skills and parts of speech. They also learn math skills while making change with Gabby's Bone Bucks.
PLAYING THE GAME
- One player draws 5 cards from the word card box and lays them word-side up in the center of play. All players use the same 5 Baffle Gab™ words drawn for each round.
- Turn the timer over and begin writing a sentence or story on the paper provided. Use the 5 Baffle Gab™ words and as many of your own words as you want.
- Call "time's up" when the timer runs out – and everyone stops writing.
- Each player reads his or her story out loud, beginning with the person who drew the cards for the round. The player to the left of the first reader reads next and so on until all players have read their stories.
- Challenges can be made as soon as a player reads a story out loud. (Please see the rule sheet for the do's and don'ts of challenging a player.) Remember though, if your challenge is incorrect, it can cost you Bone Bucks.
- Count the point values of each word used correctly in your story and collect your Bone Bucks from the Boneyard Banker. The first player to get 100 Bone Bucks wins!
