Product Description:
In this digital age there is still a place for knots, skimming stones, and stories of incredible courage. Based on the bestselling book for every boy from eight to eighty, The Dangerous Book for Boys Game stimulates curiosity and makes for great father-son bonding activities by introducing essential boyhood skills such as building tree houses, learning how to fish, finding true north, and even answering the age old question of "what the big deal with girls is!"

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fun game for family or a group of kids
Well, this is my first Amazon review, but I truly was inspired by how much fun we had with this game. We have two boys, ages 9 and 11 and we played the game for the first time today. Each turn is a new game...from playing squares to knowing the basic rule of construction...we had a blast. If your children love Cub Scouts, the great outdoors, or studying the world around them, they'll enjoy this game. But don't get too comfortable, this game requires actual movement!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fun for the family.
My son and I love to play this game. It brings you back to a simpler times when boys would be boys. Great game.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wow, great family fun
We bought this and have so much fun with it. But it doesn't tell you that you need to read the book before playing (common sense I guess). But so much fun. My son and I actually play against a friend and his mom all the time. Great fun and I recommend it to anyone.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hours of Fun!!
I bought this for my 8 year old nephew and he loves it! It is hours of fun for the whole family! Next I'm getting him the book!!
