I am jumping on the bandwagon with my own version of Name the Babies because I love playing these and I like creating prompts and rules! I have made a plan to ensure that the families are relatively diverse. Wherever no gender is specified, you can choose! Round 1 we have parents. I hope you enjoy this game as much as I loved creating it!
Because I usually end up missing several rounds in some games, I want to give everyone a fair chance by leaving each round open for at least 24 hours. I am posting this at 15:46 UTC and will hopefully have the next round up at 18:00 UTC on 22nd June, depending on my schedule.
