If you love the party game Cards Against Humanity and are navigating the adventurous waters of parenthood, you’re in for a treat! Enthusiastic fans of the original game have crafted a delightful version specifically for parents. Imagine having a fun, relatable activity to enjoy while sharing a glass (or two) of wine with your fellow mom friends on a Friday night!
According to sources, parents Dave and Sara Jenkins were avid fans of Cards Against Humanity but felt the need for something that truly resonated with their lives as the parents of little ones. This led to the creation of ParentPerfect, a game that mirrors the original but includes cards like “diaper disasters,” which is just hilarious!
In their chats with fans, the Jenkins’ shared that many of the game’s cards were inspired by their own children, Zoe and Max. Dave explains, “Like all parents, we adore our kids, but they certainly have their moments. Their shenanigans, along with those of other kids, helped shape many of the cards.”
Examples of the cards are both uproarious and relatable, designed to capture the everyday trials and triumphs of parenting. The Jenkins’ aimed to transform the daily challenges of parenthood into a reason to indulge in some much-needed ‘mommy juice!’ Because, let’s be honest, we don’t really need an excuse for that anyway. As Dave puts it, “Parenting is hard; there’s no manual handed to you when you leave the hospital, yet everyone has an opinion on how you should do it differently.”
And it gets even better! You can blend these parenting-themed cards with your existing Cards Against Humanity decks or even with Apples to Apples, another game that shares a similar vibe. My partner and I often enjoy playing CAH with friends who are also parents. A set of parenting-themed cards would certainly add a fun twist to our game nights. Just imagine the laughter when someone plays a card like “A crayon masterpiece left on the dining room table!”
In a world where parents could always use a good laugh, these cards offer the perfect excuse to kick back with a glass (or more) of wine and enjoy the company of like-minded friends. Here’s hoping the Jenkins’ Kickstarter is a smashing success so we can all add this novel game to our go-to gifts for baby showers. And if it doesn’t pan out? We can always grab our kids’ markers and create our own!
You can find the cards available on Amazon.
