Monkeys are very cute, playful and quiet smart. Most people don't have them as pets because they like to play and throw and finger paint with pooh. The monkeys I liked the best when younger were a barrel of them - and they were first created by lakeside toys. You can read about them if you like, right here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrel_of_Monkeys This past time kept me occupied on many a rainy day when I couldn't be playing outside. My question to you is what old game - not just Milton Bradley (did you know Oiuja is classified as family entertainment) - but any older version game you remember playing in your childhood. Yahtzee, boggle, pictionary - maybe just a game of pretend - perhaps one involving monkeys or elephants or giraffes - or maybe you used to pretend to have a pet dog or cat?

I love the Barrel of Monkeys! My fiance has a couple of barrels from when he was younger, and he had a spare "barrel" piece that I use as my pencil holder at work. :)
The games I remember from when I was younger were Candy Land, and later Scattergories. My family also had an obsession with Dominoes for a while; we played it at just about every family get-together. :)

I remember those games - I remember really liking CandyLand for some reason. I love monkeys anyone - despite being bitten by one as a toddler - according to my sister, one of her friends had one as a pet and it bit me and I dreamed of monkeys in my closet that night!
I'm starting to like games again. I like the ones like mylot.
