message 1: by Karina (new)

Karina Here is a game I liked to play because it is random, funny, and educational depending on what people ask.

A person will ask a question starting with Did you know..and the next person will answer and ask a different Did You Know question.

Please Play nice ...that means no rude answers or inappropriate questions are allowed (:
