ORIGIN OF BLURT
Ponder a little while over the question before answering.............
Which word exactly means “A person living in total solitude by choice”. Well did you say – introvert. Sorry you are totally off the mark. Contemplate a little more on it…...did I just now hear you say ascetic. Well you are close but not yet there. However if you have already guessed it correctly as hermit
, bingo, you can move your pawn forward to the next place.Well if you are wondering what I am speaking about, welcome to the world of BLURT – An enjoyable Board Game. Move over Scrabble and Pictionary, as here comes a board game where vocabulary and mental agility go hand in hand. Your stock of words alone will not be sufficient to help you out in this game as your ability to think faster may make the difference between winning and losing.
Well those of you who think that this is easy, there is a certain twist to it - try racing against your friends in saying the word first. As competition creeps in, the “blurting” gets intense and so does the blunder.
With no age limit being there for playing this board game proves to be a great addition to parties, a must-have for a family or game night and also the much needed respite for all those bored children, physically as well as those at heart.
And as Spell Bee contestant, Anastasia Clonsky claimed “BLURT has not only enhanced my vocabulary but has also helped in inculcating a faster and logical mind”, this game could very well prove to be the guide to your son/ daughter being the next Spell Bee champion.
So, are you game for this rollercoaster of words or what!!!!!
