If you’re a fan of the quirky party game Cards Against Humanity and are navigating the chaotic world of parenting, then you’re in for a treat! A group of creative fans has developed a version that speaks directly to the trials and tribulations of parenthood. Imagine sipping wine with fellow parents on a Friday night while engaging in some (sort of) constructive fun!
The brainchild behind this delightful twist is a couple named Sarah and Mark Thompson, who wanted a game that echoed their experiences as parents of two young boys. Thus, “KinderChaos” came to life—much like the original game, but with a humorous parenting spin. Picture cards that bring to mind the everyday absurdities of raising kids, like “baby tantrums,” which are sure to get a laugh.
Sarah and Mark shared with the media that many of the cards are inspired by their own children’s antics. As Sarah puts it, “Every parent loves their kids, but they can be a handful. It’s their hilarious mischief, along with that of other kids, that sparked many of our card ideas.”
The cards are designed to be relatable and downright funny, thanks to ideas crowdsourced from fellow parents in their community. Mark explains, “Our goal is to transform the daily challenges of parenting into a reason to enjoy some ‘parenting juice’—not that we really need an excuse for that!” He also notes, “Parenting can be tough, and there’s no manual handed to you when you leave the hospital with your newborn. Yet everyone seems to have an opinion on how you should parent.”
One of the fantastic features of KinderChaos is its compatibility. You can combine its cards with existing Cards Against Humanity decks or even with Apples to Apples. My partner and I often play CAH with friends who are also parents, and adding a parenting-themed set would be a welcomed change. While I enjoy the classic “awkward sideboob” card, I can only imagine the laughter that would ensue from “A crayon drawing taped to the fridge.”
Parents always appreciate a good laugh, and this game provides the perfect excuse to unwind with a glass (or more) of wine while bonding with like-minded friends. Here’s hoping the Thompsons succeed with their Kickstarter campaign, making this a must-have for baby showers this fall. If they don’t, we could always grab the kids’ markers and craft our own version.
You can find KinderChaos available for purchase on Amazon!
