Honestly, I heart a lot of things. All my friends know that I'm no minimalist. And our game corner certainly reflects this fact! Christmas brought some fun new additions, and as game-presents under the tree multiplied, Misa shared a cool challenge from BoardGameGeek that I'm excited to be trying. I think she referred to it as the 10 in 10 Challenge -- the idea is that you play ten games ten times each in 2015.

I had planned to share this in January... BUT, if you love games, or your kids love games but you don't, or you want to be sure game-playing doesn't get pushed out of the week, or you want to encourage game-playing, or or or -- it's not too late to jump on board (heh -- no pun intended there)!
As an added bonus, the challenge has encouraged me to pull out all of our games and look at the ones that we never (ever) play. I piled them up, and we're playing through them and giving each a thumbs up or down. And even if it's a thumbs down, we got a play in! We gave it a fair shake, shared an experience, and reviewed it together.
Winning!
I'd say more, but when Linus saw what I was writing about he asked to play a game! Gotta go!
great idea - I love board games!!
ReplyDeleteWe're having so much fun with it! I even used it as a springboard to get some "creating" time in while making our tracking board!
