A favorite game

My parents introduced my kids to a new game last weekend and they LOVE it. I remember seeing this game in the closet when I was young but never played it. It didn't look exciting enough. I have to say, my parents are so good about finding fun things for the kids to do when they are at their house. They are always introducing them to fun games, crafts, and baking that they don't do at our house. I guess that's why grandparents are so much fun!
Tripoly is a game that has aspects of Michigan rummy, poker, and hearts. While I don't condone gambling for children (ha!) this game is a lot of fun and the kids absolutely love it.

My mom tried to find Tripoly for the kids for Christmas but didn't have any luck. It is, after all an older game and not as popular today as it was several years ago.

On Sunday, Elijah and I were doing some shopping at Meijer and we decided to see if there were any sales on some fun board games. On the very bottom shelf, we found it. On sale for $9.99...there it was....TRIPOLY! Sydney is going to be SO excited when they open it.

I have a feeling we will be playing a lot of Tripoly over Christmas break.

I'm so excited!

On top of that, this will be one of those memories Elijah, Noah, and Sydney will carry over to their children. They will tell their children how Granny and Pappy taught them out to play Tripoly and then we bought it for our house. Maybe even one day, Chad and I will teach our grandchildren to play Tripoly. What a fun thing to pass down to your children's children...games and having fun...TOGETHER!
