Wanna Play?

 
Let me loose on a free day from work, I come home with nonsense.
But I couldn´t resist, it was too cute!!!
 

 See how tiny this 4-on-4 is????
And there was no way one would "win".
I have a bigger version:
 
 
Well, this game is for kids. 
But... I could not resist!!!
And we had a fun time - that´s what counts! 
 
Others pay €40 for a visit to the cinema. Plus popcorn and beer... €60+?
I payed €3 for the tiny one and €5 for the "big" one.
 
 
And we had:
A happy Summer-Day on the balcony!!!
 
Henry 🦁
 
 
Have a playful Sunday!!
 
Never forget the kid in you!!! No matter, doctor, engineer, cash-out-person, whatever you are Mom, Dad, Grandma, Granddad..., NEVER EVER forget the kid in you! Stay a kid inside. I´ll always be (taking my jobs serious and)   SILLY!

And since another workday lies ahead (yippeeee).... Another short history lesson, if you like:

 
"The Hidden Inventions of Great Inventors:
 
Beasley is best known for her inventions that improved the manufacture of barrels. But she also had some lesser-known inventions. For example, foot warmers, a bread kneader and a device that prevented trains from derailing." Source

Atm I´m surfing as if I have 56k-modem. Something is wrong, might be  a bug or the super-humid weather.... It´s like a jungle in here and the dehydrator is running day and night.
So much for no money for heating.

Thank you for the interesting history lesson.

That game is new to me, Iris.
It is really humid here too.

Yes, to letting our inner child play in whatever way. Rather than skipping, I will be making up songs and singing them to my 4 walls. My game of choice is solitaire. I play until it's sure I'll win, then stop and move on to the next game. Silly people who waste their time just plopping cards till the end of a game...my way give me much more play time!

The game is new to me too. Try and stay cool, we have a nice wind right now and it really doesn't get humid here.

Jeanie said...

The game is new to me and looks fun. I wonder if the boys have seen this one.

Granny Sue said...

I never saw that game before but made me smile! Hot, humid and no rain here. Again. I am so sick of this weather.

My name is Erika. said...

That is the smallest Connect 4 game I have ever seen. It might be for kids, but it's fun to play every now and again. Hope it was a great weekend. hugs-Erika

magiceye, you´re welcome!

RedPat, yes, it´s a gameful jungle still!

Barbara, singing (to your walls) is good, too. I never played solitaire!
Well, I think we were ver silly playing Mau-Mau, 90% I won, yet Ingo kept playing!

___

Bill, not a breeze here. But to be honest... I love it!

____

Jeanie, would be fun for your boys!

___

Sue, I am astonished this game is so unknown! I actually like this weather, just my internet does not ...

____

Erika, Ingo and I cannot outsmart each other.... not even if we have a beer! It was a great weekend :-) Hope yours as well, hugs

I remember buying Connect Four for "no-one" when she was three. After the first game where nobody won, she looked at it for a minute, analysed where all the "coins" were, then she won every game after that. Every single game! At age 3.

LOL, she was genius at early age!!!
