Mad Libs

From age 8 to 11, my friend Stacey always had a “mad lib” in hand and challenged us to “give me a noun, a name and a verb ending in ‘ing’.” We laughed a lot over these fill-in-the-blank paragraphs.
Before reading any further (no peeking, OK?), write down a
noun
color
name
exclamation
verb ending in ‘ing’
adjective
noun
adjective
plural noun
Now, take those words in order and fill in the blanks.
A __(noun)___ wearing a ___(color)___ hat, walks up to the bar. “Pour me a drink, bartender. And one for my friend, ____(name)____. ”
The bartender pours two drinks and handed them to his customer. “___(exclamation)____, I think that your friend is ___(verb ending in ‘ing’)___.
“Oh, he always does that. He’s a ___(adjective)___ ___(noun)____ with ___(adjective)____ ____(plural noun)____.”
Are you giggling?
