Around the Table Games, the maker of Grandparent Talk and Family Talk, has released three new versions of its conversation-starting games: Camp Talk, Buddy Talk and Teen Talk.

The travel-friendly games cost $9.99 and are a set of 50 bubble-shape cards with questions such as: If you could have picked your own name, what would it be? And: What is the weirdest dream you’ve ever had? The questions on the cards were thought up by kids for other kids.
