It's true that tetrus almost prevented me from completing my senior thesis in college. And it's possible that this little game could prevent me from earning a paycheck. Forewarned is fairwarned, mamas. So you can test your vocabulary, learn more vocabulary, and feed the world (albeit slowly) all at once. Too good to be true? Nope. That's the beauty of advertising. They pay for everything. You look, they pay. Simple as that.
But it's fun...and more than a little addictive. Got 30 minutes...or more? Check it out. Free Rice. Here's how they describe this, uh, game:
FreeRice has two goals:
- Provide English vocabulary to everyone for free.
- Help end world hunger by providing rice to hungry people for free.
This is made possible by the sponsors who advertise on this site.
Whether you are CEO of a large corporation or a street child in a poor country, improving your vocabulary can improve your life. It is a great investment in yourself.
Perhaps even greater is the investment your donated rice makes in hungry human beings, enabling them to function and be productive. Somewhere in the world, a person is eating rice that you helped provide. Thank you.
Thanks, Kristin, for sharing your addiction. Where was this when I was studying for the GRE??? Have fun, mamas. It's not everyday you can play a vocab game and share rice that someone else is paying for with people who need it. It works for me (I think) - you??
