This game gets Grandparents who want to have fun with their grandkids to adventure and explore together
Designed to create epic adventures and lasting memories with the Grandchildren, the primary outcome is fun! But if you look a little deeper (and you don't need to tell the grandkids this) you'll find cards that bridge the gaps between the generations and encourage cross generational sharing. You'll find chances to share history with stories and real life adventures. You'll find ways to capture and create history, to make things together, to explore together, to play together in ways you played when you were young and of course to have fun together.
The Grandparents Edition of the Getting Lost Game is our biggest game ever - featuring 30 At Home Activities on one side of the cards and 30 Out and About Activities and Directions on the other side of the cards.
The Grandparents Edition is made with the help of our amazing Getting Lost community of grandparents. We've had literally thousands of suggestions for this game. And a particular mention goes to Lesley, Michelle, Kathy, Leanne, Ronda, Wendy, Gail, Suzanne, Lynette, Suzie, Lea, Angela, Kerri, Louise, Kerry, Sheryl, Erin, Kobe, Roselle, Sue, Laraine, Joanne, Christine, Janine, Amelia, Jenni, Charlie, Lynda, Leeana and Monica whose ideas feature in this edition. This game has been tested by Grandparents and Grandchildren alike and we hope that it will be tested by many, many more in the years to come.

My father was super impressed with the imaginative tasks from the cards. He is looking forward to being able to do these over the next few years with his now 5-year-old grand daughter. I think some of the ideas may even be used for picnic outings with family and friends.

Had a fantastic time with the Grandkiddos! After all what else do you do on the 1st day of winter but spend several hours at the beach, eat hokey pokey ice creams and write about a great day had by all...
Sounds like a perfect day to me! Thanks so much for the review.
