games

Vacation, snow days and teacher workdays mean that our game rotation is in full effect.  

This drill board is fun for both the boys - they can even create pictures with the different colors.

We have a new hex bug arena that is really neat because you can build tracks for them to follow and they can travel to the second story.

Jenga the real deal and just as blocks is fun at Aunt Lulu's house!

This Dog Bingo has dice and combines two different things, the type of dog and the activity.  It's a good one for everyone to play together…. and those cute little dog bone markers ;)
Who Shook Hook? is a hit -  It's sometimes a fast game if you can't get Hook arranged on his hammock very well or if somebody reaches for the spinner too quickly… but it's still fun when Hook falls ;)

Gobblet Gobblers is an awesome variation on tic tac toe - The bigger guys can go over the smaller guys, but you only have two of each size… good strategy game!

These wooden elephant balance blocks are really fun just to play with… 

Don't Break the Ice is just a classic. 

This Madeline DC game is another good one for everyone to play together.  If I could just remember to growl like a tiger when I pass the zoo, I'd stop losing a point.

This Blokus game hasn't quite been played accurately yet, but it's funny that they take turns putting down pieces and came up with this duck ;)

Everyone loves this Monkey Tree game where they all fall down.  We play that you want to get as many monkeys as possible which is technically backwards, but then everyone gets excited when the monkeys fall down ;)

This new double race track is getting lotsa play time… You never know what will soak up the time on those long snow days.
