Our Super Summer 2012 mission is winding down. Only this week and next before it is back to school. Didn't get as much done as I would have liked, but I still think it has been quite a success. Today was one of those days where we didn't do anything I had planned because we were doing other equally fun and worthwhile stuff. Morning was the usual: breakfast, TV (he's on a Super Hero Squad kick right now), Wii (which is aerobic for him; will try to post some video), then lunch. After we ate, he wanted to play a game.
He periodically goes on Monopoly binges, and he's in the middle of a very intense one. So right after lunch, we started playing. That took up the entire afternoon until DH got home from work, but we were both laughing and having fun, *and* we were getting in his reading and math practice without him even realizing it. Doesn't get much better than that!
He can make change up to about $200 in his head, and he read most of the property titles and chance/community chest cards without much difficulty. *And* he beat me fair and square. That might just make monopoly the greatest game ever, in his book! LOL
Currently feeling: monopolized
Oooo...stealth math practice! =) Have you seen Under the Boardwalk? Not as entertaining as King of Kong: Fistful of Quarters, but still very interesting.
