Jenga!

On a cold January evening, the kids decided they wanted to play Jenga. We have had the game for a while and even played a little bit, but it never lasted long before we would crash the tower and have to rebuild. Their attention spans didn't last too long after a couple of rebuilds. Anyway, I was actually amazed and pleasantly surprised at how different this night went! I guess it really had been a while since we played because both kids were very good with their fine motor skills and patience in working to get the little pieces out. Anyway, we actually seriously played a bunch of times. And it was fun!

We even played on the carpet!


And Max would RUN a victory lap after each one of his successes...



With both of these "obstacles" I was surprised by how far we got each time before...
