Prime Rhyme

Here is a game you can play as a travel amusement, as a family home evening activity, or simply as something different to do with your friends. First, think of two rhyming words with the same number of syllables, such as silly billy. Next, give a two-word clue, such as “foolish goat,” and let the other players guess what your prime rhyme is. The one who guesses it first gets to give the next clue. Here are a few prime rhymes to get you started.

  1. Grumpy employer

  2. Insane flower

  3. Overweight feline

  4. Fuzzy fruit

  5. Sad paste

  6. Heated kettle
