Our New Favorite Game

Sunday, 19 March 2006

On a shopping trip to find fun, small, flat Easter things to send my nieces in Lebanon, Samuel found a can of Pick-Up Sticks in Targets $1 bins and insisted on taking them home with us. Grandpa taught the children the finer points of the game, and with minimal lenience, they became VERY good players!

Here Sam and Grandpa discuss strategy:


And in this later game, Sam has just successfully rolled a stick off the pile, for yet another point.
