Tour of Puzzles & Games
We had lots of fun last Sunday mastering puzzles and a few puzzling games. Some were harder than they looked! We even had a few adult visitors who joined the fun (and it all carried over into Game Night on Wednesday!)

Each color represents a different person adding to the story. Do you recognize any of the seven principles? Once … Continue reading UU Book of Stories
