Sybil Bruncheon's "Fun 'n' Gaymes For Thanksgiving Time!"...

Hi there, Boys and Girls! Do you like to play games with each other during our Holiday times?... especially when Mommy and Daddy are having martinis downstairs with other grown-ups, and you've locked the bedroom door? Sure! Who doesn't!...

... well, here's a game from our favorite Highlights Magazine from November!... you know, Highlights? It's the fun magazine in the dentist's office waiting room where you sit and someone's screaming in the other room while your parents tell you to sit still and stop being a big baby! I hate that, don't you?

... well, here's a photo of a little girl named Fifi at the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade watching the floats, the big helium balloons, the marching bands, the baton twirlers, and scary elf-clowns. She's all dressed up in her fancy parade-watching outfit that her Mommy bought at Filene's... in the BASEMENT!... and LOOK!... on her shoulder is a little brooch! Do you know what a brooch is?... well, it's a fancy word for a lady-pin. Yes, it's true that a police man wears a badge, but don't call it a man-brooch because he might yell... or throw you in Tiny-Jail... which is just a bird-cage but with thicker bars.

Anyway, Fifi's brooch is kind of strange, so the game is for you to select the best description of what it is... here are the answers, and you pick the best!

1) It's a pipe cleaner craft project that little Fifi made at her Brownies jamboree. She won third prize in the "Gifts For Grandma Contest", and she would have won first place if she hadn't told the judges it was of a dog she saw run over by a steam shovel...

2) It's a bunch of dust bunny hair she found under the sofa and glued together with spit and a wire. Fifi likes Picasso, and claimed it's an abstract from her own "Blue Period".

3) Fifi's kitty, Mr. Scratchkins, has been shedding lately, and she decided to help by giving him a hair-cut and making a miniature voo-doo doll of him complete with claws made of toothpicks and red eyes made from cranberries... for the HOLIDAYS!

4) A TV show told a story about a place called Mt. Everest and the scary giant-people that live up in the sky called the Yeti. Fifi asked Daddy what an Abominable Snowman is, and he showed her by putting on his thermal underwear, and a pair of underpants over his face, and then he hid in the front closet for when Mommy came home from the store! Fifi laughed and laughed... and made a pin just like him!

5) It's bird poop and Mommy just went to get a Kleenex.
