Not Parent Approved: The Family-Friendly Party Game That Brings Laughs for All Ages

Not Parent Approved: The Family-Friendly Party Game That Brings Laughs for All Ages

What Is Not Parent Approved?

If you’ve ever wished for a PG-13 version of Cards Against Humanity that kids, tweens, and adults could actually play together, meet Not Parent Approved. Designed for four or more players ages 8 and up, this fast-paced party card game fills the room with laughter, outrageous jokes, and lots of interaction.

Players take turns filling in the blanks on hilarious question cards using the silliest answers from their hand. The catch? The "Burp Boss" — crowned at the start — picks the winning response each round, setting the tone for outrageous fun. Whether it’s family game night, a sleepover, or a birthday bash, Not Parent Approved makes sure everyone is laughing (and a little bit mischievous).

Why Families Love Not Parent Approved

1. Laugh-Out-Loud Moments Without the Cringe

Unlike adult games packed with NSFW content, Not Parent Approved keeps things light, cheeky, and completely kid-appropriate. The jokes are silly enough for kids to love but clever enough for adults to genuinely laugh along.

2. Easy Setup, Fast Play

Forget complicated rules or hour-long sessions. You can learn Not Parent Approved in less than five minutes, and rounds are quick — meaning the energy stays high and nobody gets bored.

3. Burp Boss Brilliance

In a hilarious twist, the first round's winner becomes the Burp Boss, making them the ultimate judge of humor for the next round. This rotating judge format keeps everyone on their toes and the laughs rolling.

4. Screen-Free Connection

Created to pull kids away from screens, Not Parent Approved inspires old-fashioned, face-to-face fun. No apps, no Wi-Fi needed — just cards, jokes, and your loudest burps.

How to Play Not Parent Approved

1. Getting Started

  • Shuffle the red Question Cards and the blue Answer Cards separately.

  • Deal each player seven blue Answer Cards.

2. Gameplay Basics

  • The Burp Boss reads a red Question Card aloud.

  • Everyone else submits their funniest blue Answer Card face-down.

  • The Burp Boss reads all submissions and picks the one that made them laugh the hardest.

  • The winner of that round gets to be the new Burp Boss!

3. Winning the Game
