There’s a new hotness in town and it’s name is Mancala. It’s a simple board game where you move colored stones around a board and try to capture as many as you can. Maile learned to play it this summer at Steve & Kate’s camp and she is absolutely addicted. She plays it non-stop – 5-10+ rounds a day right now – Mommy and Daddy both play (and she typically whomps us), but she is also plays by herself, solitaire-style.
She’s very, very fast at it – and I kind of feel like she sometimes cheats, but I’m not sure, because she moves too quickly. (And to be honest, since in order to cheat, you kind of need to use math, I guess that’s not so bad.)
Mancala is serious business.
