Learning English can be challenging, especially when it comes to understanding grammar rules. One area of grammar that can be particularly tricky is knowing when to use gerunds or infinitives after certain verbs. A gerund is formed by adding "-ing" to a verb, while an infinitive is the base form of the verb with "to" in front of it.

To help you practice using gerunds and infinitives, we have created a fun ESL grammar game called the "Monkey Game." In this game, you will help a monkey swing through the jungle by correctly using gerunds or infinitives after different verbs.

The game is simple to play. You will be given a sentence with a verb and you need to decide whether to use a gerund or an infinitive after it. If you choose the correct answer, the monkey will swing through the jungle safely. But if you choose the wrong answer, the monkey will fall and the game will be over.

By playing this game, you will not only improve your understanding of gerunds and infinitives but also develop your grammar skills and vocabulary. You will be able to use these structures correctly in your speaking and writing, and communicate more effectively in English.

So, are you ready to swing through the jungle and master gerunds and infinitives? Let's play the Monkey Game!
