    Mad LIbs were funny storys in a small bound book. They were written like your post from this morning only under the lines, it would say noun, verb, etc.  You would tell someone to name a noun, verb etc, fill it in on the line, and then read the whole story back to the person.  They were fun and silly.  Thanks to the magical internet, I copied one below:

    Today I went to the zoo. I saw a ____________(adjective)

    _____________(noun) jumping up and down in its tree. He

    _____________(verb: past tense) __________(adverb) through the

    large tunnel that led to its __________(adjective)

    __________(noun). I got some peanuts and passed them

    through the cage to a gigantic gray __________(noun)

    towering above my head. Feeding that animal made me

    hungry. I went to get a __________(adjective) scoop of ice

    cream. It filled my stomach. Afterwards I had to

    __________(verb) __________ (adverb) to catch our bus. When

    I got home I __________(verb past tense) my mom for a

    __________(adjective) day at the zoo.
