And if I stretch, I can consider Mad Libs educational--now they sorta know what nouns, adjectives, verbs, and adverbs are!
Here's my favorite one so far, from a Star Wars Mad Lib:
Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to (verb ending in -ing).
We came up with:
Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to tooting.
We've laughed for two days!
At the bay last weekend Carolyn opened a can of Flarp, which, in case you didn't know, is "noise putty." It makes "tooting" sounds when you press your fingers into the can. Carolyn and I cracked up every time she (yes, the adults were the ones who flarped the most) made the putty talk to us. We're not above low humor, evidently.
