Game playing

Noah has discovered a new favorite game - mankala, or khala; like a favorite child this game has many names. We have played it at home using plain egg cartoons and beans, but Aunt Lisa had in her treasure trove the real deal, a beautifully crafted wood game with sparkling marbles. Noah quickly set out to teach and then hopefully beat any of his kind relatives who would agree to play.
In the end what matter was time spent having fun, although Noah really does like to win as evident by the multiple Monopoly games that took place during the reunion.
