Info About Days of the Week
Imagine sitting around a kitchen table with friends or family, a colorful deck of cards in the middle and a spinner set on “Monday.” That’s the whole idea behind Days of the Week: you pick a card, read the category (like “tropical fruits” or “things that buzz”), then race to name one item for each day of the week as the spinner ticks through. Monday’s answer might be “mango,” Tuesday “banana,” and so on until someone either falters or you hit Sunday and tally up how many unique, on-theme items each player has listed.
What really makes it fun is the push and pull between speed and creativity. You want to be quick enough to get seven solid answers, but if everyone zips through “cats” and “dogs,” you’ve got to stretch your mind for “ocelot” or “savannah cat” on Wednesday. Some rounds end in giggles as people shout out increasingly wild ideas, while others feel like a race against the clock—especially when someone’s forgotten what they said for Tuesday and you have to backtrack.
The game’s simplicity is a big draw. You don’t need a rulebook the size of a novel or complicated scoring sheets. Just shuffle the cards, spin the wheel, and go. Plus, it scales easily—play with kids who are learning their weekdays, bring it to a laid-back party for a quick icebreaker, or use it as a brain-teasing warm-up at a team meeting to get everyone chatting.
At the end of the day, Days of the Week feels less like a stiff board game and more like a lively conversation starter. You’ll be surprised how a simple concept—naming seven things in seven slots—can deliver so many belly laughs, “aha!” moments, and the occasional friendly rivalry. Whether you’re a trivia buff or just looking for something light and fast, this little deck is surprisingly addictive.
