Blokus

A new year is bringing with it some new routines.  Like Family Game Night.  Scheduled for Sundays, this week we played tonight.  V chose Blokus.





 

The communal quiet focus was powerful.  The "side" stuff was interesting...the combining of pieces while waiting for a turn...Gem made a seltzer bottle, Sag made rectangles (which lent itself to informal exercises in multiplication ).

We played twice and had a lot of fun.  Sag and I (we were a team) used a specific strategy both games, which no one else chose to employ and we won both games.  Interesting!
