One of our favorite things to do when we have a lot of people is play The Great Dalmuti. We played it at a friend's house about 10 years ago with playing cards. They said you could buy the cards and I searched for a long time for them. I finally found them in a game store in Salt Lake. (They are quite easy to find these days) The idea of the game is to be the Great Dalmuti. When you are the Great Dalmuti you get the privileges of being the best player- the Peon has to give you their 2 best cards, you are the first to play, the Peon has to deal the cards and clear the piles after each round. The best part though is the props. You can use a variety of props but the idea is that the Great Dalmuti has the best prop and the Peon has the worst prop. We have used chairs- the Great Dalmuti gets the recliner, the Peon sits on the floor. We used to use Mardi gras beads. Then we went to hats, just random hats around the house. But now I have my grandmother's old hats so we use them mixed in with some other funny hats we have. The funniest part of the hats is when the guys wear a ladies hat from the 40's or a pioneer bonnet! Enough said. . .
The sillier you look the better
Even Grandma Great got in on the game
Ellie doesn't get the game but loves to wear a weird hat
This hat is so Becca!
