Dadspotting : Smart Speaker Games for you and the Family

From your team at Dadspotting (Stay safe, stay home)

It’s time to stop yelling at our Smart Speakers.  Dads, do you own a smart speaker in your home? 

Chances are you've had one of these smart speakers enter into your life for good or bad.

 With the introduction of new technology, you have to become creative in keeping your kids entertained, as well as yourself. As we all adapt to new technologies, including smart speakers, I thought why not break down some fun you can have with this smart device. 

 I recently purchased a Google Home and below are my top favorite games that keep my kids and I entertained, with Google Assistant being our game show host.

#1: Song Quiz

Akinator is a 20-questions game. You begin the game by saying, “Hey Google, let me talk to the Akinator,” and then choose a person (can be any real or popular fictional character). Akinator will then try and figure out which person you are thinking of by asking a maximum of 20 questions.
