The Game of Go Fish

Well we had Katie and Ryan playing Go Fish before dinner last night. It was pretty funny to watch.

The kids don't know enough to keep their hand away from prying eyes and when they had to draw a card, they would announce what card they got. It didn't matter to them if they got a card that they had in their hand or a brand new one. Katie and Ryan would announce with glee that they got Thomas or they got Percy (can you tell that we were playing with a Thomas the Tank Engine deck of cards here???). They were playing for the fun of the game. As for me, I was just trying to teach them the game and the idea (yet again) that they need to take turns and not to cheat.

I filled in for Jeff who was cooking dinner. I got beat by Ryan who won the game. Katie and I came in second. I would like a rematch please when they are a little older.

Bella wanted to play but it was decided that she is too young yet to join the rest of us with this type of game.
