...and it's not an electronic gadget or game. It's my newest board game, Blokus.
What I love about this game is that I have played it with kids aged 5 to 12 as well as adults and everyone has a chance of winning. The rules are simple, the game can be over in around 15 to 20 minutes and even the littlies have a chance of winning. In fact, on the weekend, I was beaten by a six year old and a twelve year old in their first few games.
This game isn't kids play or a game of chance - it needs skill. The game requires some spatial skills and assists in the development of strategic skills.
I love Blokus.
Thanks to my schoolfriend who brought her set away on a weekend trip and got me hooked.
