The love of games starts young!
❤️ 🎲
We love including our kids in our games, but they're a bit young for "playing properly". Still, we adapt and adjust so that we can spend time together learning to take turns, identify shapes or colours, and practice counting!
What games do you remember playing as a kid?

Huge shout out to our Super Backers, Jared & Tash! Along with their very own copy of Almost Words, Jared & Tash ordered this custom video with topics they picked for us! It means the world to us that we have such loving and supportive family. Thanks for being there every step of the way, guys! Love you!
Super Backers Laura and Andrew ordered a personalized video as part of their kickstarter pledge! These topics were specifically chosen by Laura and Andrew and do not appear in the retail version of Almost Words. Laura and Andrew have been a huge part of our success so far. From being willing to be in our ad to supporting us in life and kickstarter, we wouldn't be where we are today without them. We love you guys! For the full video, check out our website!
