Test Drive a Habit: Playing Games with the Kids
My Test Drive a Habit for this month is to play a game each day with the kids. I enjoyed my TDAH of daily reading with the kids and thought that this would be a good intentional way to spend time with them.
On day 1, we played an old card game called “Annie”. It is based on the musical Annie and is one of my daughter’s favorites. The object of the game is to be the first to spell A-N-N-I-E. It is a very simple game with a couple of special cards. One special card is the Miss Hannigan card which allows you to remove an opponents letter. This Miss Hannigan can be blocked by a Sandy card. My daughter loves to trick people into thinking she is going to play a Miss Hannigan every time she discards a letter. It is quite funny.
We had a great time last night playing. I’m fairly certain that this game is well out of production. I wasn’t even able to find it for sale on Ebay.
