From the brand




Have you ever called your kids to dinner to find them in front of the video games again with a glazed look in their eyes? Do you wish there was a way for your kids to have fun without involving screen time? We’ve been there, and that’s how Not Parent Approved was born!
Our goal is to see the joy of laughter during family time, have face-to-face engagement, and see our kid’s eyeballs again!




Not Parent Approved was created when Stacy Katz realized that she had a problem. Limiting screen time from her 8-year-old not only seemed like a punishment for her son, but for her as well.
Stacy and veteran game producer Maximina Juson created Not Parent Approved as a way to instantly engage your kids’ silly side, and allow the entire family to connect with each other through laughter – all packed into an easy-to-play game.

Nailed It! Kid Safe – Not Inappropriate
I SPENT A LOT OF TIME going between this and Kids Against Maturity. I’m HAPPY WITH THIS PURCHASE. Was shopping for 10-11 year olds and something adults could relate to/find funny also.Lots of people are mad about a few cards, literally a FEW which you could remove. I actually think they may have removed some of the cards people have posted on other reviews. There are also BLANK cards for you to make your own. This is definitely going to be fun for adults and kids WHO GO TO PUBLIC SCHOOL! There are a lot of SCHOOL related cards. If your kids are home schooled they may not understand half of them for find them funny. That is my only complaint as a lot of the cards are school related. They could have thrown in more that were generic that referenced the mall, store, playground, park, neighborhood, etc… will have to get expansion packs! Cards are also smaller than regular playing cards.Probably best for 10-15 year olds. Kids that are around 8 should still have fun, but maybe not relate as well to some of the cards, and kids over 15 would definitely be fine playing this with younger siblings or if babysitting, but probably not with friends who are 15 and older…I can relate to a lot of these cards thinking back as a kid in the 80s/90s but a lot of current cards that reference things kids are into now. My parents were pretty strict, but I don’t think many of the cards would have been found offensive or inappropriate even by my parents. Also, if your kids know to use the cards in a context you find inappropriate then they already learned something somewhere you weren’t aware of – kids learn a lot of inappropriate things from other kids, especially if they have older siblings, cousins or friends in the neighborhood.There are a lot of pimple/fart related cards. I think the only downfall to the game is calling it “Not Parent Approved” it is an attempt to sound cool to a kid, but it’s not… LOL

Hilarious Family Time
Basically as it advertises… it’s Card’s Against Humanity that’s appropriate for kids. From our experience, kids ages 9-18 all had a good laugh while playing this game. The only thing I would say that keeps it form earning a 5* review, is that the grammar doesn’t always line up properly. I think the creator of this game could have done a better job making sure that every answer grammatically fits with every statement. It doesn’t necessarily make the game unplayable, but it definitely catches up the younger ones who are trying to read the answers exactly as they appear, and don’t think to reform the phrase so that it fits nicely in the sentence.Otherwise – great game. Lots of laughs. Good way for kids to get away from the screens and have a great time w/ family.

LOVE IT!! We’ve had a lot of laughs and giggles with the card combinations played
This is a fun game to play with my son’s friends (8-14) and also with their parents (and the grandparents) when they are over too. His friends have asked to play it when they come over, probably because we get a lot of laughs at the combinations that are put into play. Highly recommend! The box isn’t that big, and I only bought it because it sounded fun and was on sale. I’m glad I found it as our household was in need of some laughs. I’d say as long as kids are in school and can read ok they’ll enjoy playing this game. When my son and I play, we add an extra card or two from the pile to make it interesting. You’d be amazed how often the invisible players can win a round… lol This helps make it a (fun) two player game. The cards seem to be geared toward silliness and school scenarios. (We also allow cards to be traded with deck not yet played if we draw something we don’t think will be an easily played card.) I’m really not sure what the rules are…so with what I’ve already mentioned, the only rule we play by is we pick a number of how many cards one should win in order to end the game. We even adjust that number while playing if the kids want to as long as they all agree to new number.

This game has been so fun! We have played it numerous times with many different ages. There is enough safe but inappropriate cards for the older generation without being too much for the younger generation. Love that there are no politics like in cards against humanity! Lots of fart cards and talking about “crushes”. But some very funny ones too! Kids who are a bit young for sarcasm can still play, however the game is more fun if the kids are old enough to get the jokes that are laid out. We played with a witty 8 year old who got all the jokes, however we also played with a 9 year old and the jokes went over their head. So the game depends on the level of ability of the kid. Our 10 and 12 year old LOVED it. lots of laughs. I have added a few photos to give you an idea of the types of cards you can see…the single card to the right is the question card and the 6 cards doubled up on the left are some potential answer cards. Highly recommend this as a fun family game!!

The kids thought this was the funniest thing when they played it the first time. I haven’t heard them laughing together like that for a while, which was great. Even our youngest, 6 years old, was able to join in because he can read the cards. This system could also be used as a springboard for silly story ideas…I may suggest this to them in the future. Overall happy with this purchase and would recommend for tweens and teens.

Ordered this for my thirteen year old brother’s birthday, and It’s a great game! Before giving it to him I went through all the cards to make sure that they were appropriate, and ended up taking out 2 red cards that I deemed a little inappropriate (“Your mom and her multiple personalities” and “Your cousin’s R-rated movie collection”) and 3 that didn’t really fit with the fill in the blank cards or really weren’t that funny. Other than that, this game is really fun and just like Cards Against Humanity except more appropriate for younger audiences. This game provides lots of laughs and is great for anyone 10 and up.

Gave a Christmas gift to my kids and they played it all during the break. Some cards are funny, some not so much, but kids still enjoyed it.
