Playing the game

Josh and I made a game board this morning.  It was just squares with numbers and he found two counters and a dice and we played a racing game to the finish.  Then he decided we needed to write the rules for when he played it with Steve.  So he told me what we needed to write.  It was very articulate and to the point.  I wrote most of the words but I encouraged him to write the sight words he knows: I, and, to.  It was really cool to do that with him.  After we went swimming he played it with Steve and they decided they would draw some snakes and ladders on the board.  It's his new favourite game (before it was noughts and crosses that we made from foam squares - he is conflicted whether to call it noughts and crosses or tic, tac, toe : D) and we've played it a few times today!
