The Funny Game

Today at National Geograpic.com I play funny game called Funny Fill-In.

You just pick a bunch of words sort of like Mad Libs. Next you wait for a couple sec. to load. Finally the words that you type in will go into a paragraph.

You can send the paragraph to a friend or print your paragarph and this game is very education because kids can learn new words.

You both will need to pace yourselves with this assignment — do not spend too much time listening to music or selecting images. There will be time to play with the program later.
