Regency Traditions Video: Parlor Games — 6 Comments

  1. Interesting. Was there a typical age range or group of people who played these parlor games? I could see the Bennet sisters doing this amongst themselves when they were younger and maybe with a few of their neighbors, but, except for Kitty and Lydia, I cannot see them playing these games when with people like Mr. Darcy — and I really cannot see HIM playing these games.

  2. What fun!! These games look like they’d be quite raucous and enjoyable. I can almost hear Lydia Bennet’s squeals of delight…. 😉

    Our family tends to play Apples to Apples and Harry Potter Clue. 😉

    Thanks for these last few days of parlor games, m’dear!! I’ve really enjoyed them.

    Warmly,
    Susanne 🙂

  3. Fun. The last reminds me of the game Twister in which you spin a pointer and then have to touch one of your outer limbs to a spot of that color on the mat. People who can’t reach a color or who fall out lose. The last one in place wins.
