I'm so glad the days of Candyland is over. I hated that game.
Even Chutes 'n Ladders. Including that cherry tree game that we played.
We played it so many times I wanted to die of boredom. I know.. mean mom!
Imagine my excitement now that my girls are old enough to play games that I like to play!
Like card games! and Chinese Checkers!
I was taught the game of Speed when I was in high school. I played with my friend Jennifer. She gave me scratches over my hands every time I played with her. It quickly became a game I was NOT fond of playing with Jennifer.

Then, Katie learned how to play it from a friend! Oh, it brought back the memories! Now both my girls play it. One is a fast mover at the cards, the other is gentle & laid back.
Guess who wins?
"NO! You're not doing it right!!"
My family loves card games. I need to teach my family Speed.
ReplyDeleteSo fun! I used to play speed with my sisters all the time when we were teens.
