Deal Me In

Playing games is one of Ben's absolute favorite things to do. He loves all kids of games - card games, board games, computer games - I don't think we've found one yet that he has turned down. One of his resolutions for New Years was to play more games and I think we're accomplishing that!

We usually play a game either at the beginning of our school time or as part of our school work, and then more games in afternoon and sometimes after dinner. Favorites these days are Hit the Habitat Trail, Yahtzee, Rummikub, Speed, the Minecraft Card game, and Pokemon (and Life but he has to play that with Dad, it's not my cup of tea!).

 I also recently taught Ben how to play Solitaire and in the process got re-addicted to it myself! I was happy when I offhandedly mentioned that there are Solitaire apps on most computers and tablets and he replied that he didn't want to play them, he wanted "to learn with real cards first!"
