A few days ago I was searching the web for something fun to share in Family Home Evening about Nauvoo (I was teaching a lesson about the temple there) and I found this fun game that you can download for free. The "Nauvoo Neighbor" board game is kind of a take off on a Monopoly game--it uses streets in Nauvoo and various buildings located on each of the streets. As you go around the board and land on the different properties you can read a bit about what it was for or who built it or lived there. It took us about 20 minutes to play a round; Sweetie Peach was very excited when she won. I think we will laminate and hold on to this game and play it on a Sunday again after Patch is back from Scout camp. I love having additional activities to use for FHE and Sunday afternoons.

Oh, how fun!!! I have ancestors who actually were neighbors in Nauvoo so that makes it especially fun for me! Can't wait to use this!
ReplyDeleteThe game is no longer available. Can you re-post the link? I'm teaching Primary and have a very busy full-time job, so not much time in my schedule to make up my own version. Thank YOU!!
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE a digital copy if you still have it or could even take photos of your copy. The link to the original creator is not longer available . My family will be visiting Nauvoo this summer and monopoly junior is their favorite game. If so you can send it to me at jessjane.west@gmail.com
