Games

Small daughter and I have been playing a lot of games recently. She's now old enough to understand that games have rules, and so we can play some "proper" games. We started with Operation (the Toy Story 3 edition), some simple card games, and tonight, an old family favourite of my family: Yahtzee. It's a great one for small children: the rules are quite simple, there's lots of rolling of dice, it's fun, it's easy to learn, and it's really good for their maths skills. I'm slightly regretting my decision now though: I taught her the game about an hour ago, we played two games, and she completely thrashed me. In both games.

I'm hoping that this is just beginners' luck....
