Since Rick is going out of town for the week, we had Family Home Evening tonight. It was Andrew's turn for the lesson. He did a really good job. He is so creative. And he worked SO hard on it. It was awesome. For his lesson he wanted to make a game. He drew up a game board, made pieces for each team, and had Rick help him write out the different scenerioes for the game. He had things like:
You need to empty the dishwasher but instead you keep playing with toys. 0 points.
You take a toy. 0 points.
You empty the dishwasher without being asked. 98 points.
You clean the house without being asked. You don't throw up when you are sick and your family is eating pizza. 99 points.
You take a toy from your baby sister. When mom asks why sister is crying you say you don't know why. 0 points.
You quickly get a phone when needed. 2 points.
Mom & Dad ask you to get your baby brother or sister a treat. You don't want to because it is your favorite treat. Mom says if you do it they will buy more of your favorite treats for you at the store. 16 points.
You took a toy from your brother and accidentally broke it and lied to mom. 0 points.
It made us all laugh when Joseph & I got 99 points on our first draw then 98 so we had to go backwards & then 16 so we went back to 16. But we won with that as Andrew & Rick got 0 points & Lexie & Eliza got 2.
There may be a few flaws with all of the rules, but we had a blast & Andrew was so happy with it and we had fun together as a family. And really, that's all that matters.
