After dinner tonight the kids pulled out Rummikub. They were about to play on their own when a certain 6 year old, who will remain nameless, started crying. Now my usual response to that would be something along the lines of knock it off....you can't cry every time you play a game..... But then he said (albeit with a whine in his voice) "This game is confusing me!" I was so happy that he didn't just get mad but expressed what was making him mad, so I told him that I would help him out. So I was the Rummikub coach for whoever needed help. I tried to impart all of my Rummikub wisdom teaching them strategy.... We ended up playing several rounds and The Boy ended up declaring it the best game he ever played by the time we were done!
