Snakes & Ladders is not only a good family game with plenty of counting practice for the younger ones, it can teach life lessons as well. Slowly plodding along the path of life, we experience blessings and graces that give us a boost, as well as struggles and challenges that test our character.
I dug out our family game of Snakes and Ladders. It’s 3D and even has little round place holders…that are unfortunately just a touch too small to hold the little wooden painted people. The little figures do fit on top though, just like they did in Trouble: Converted 2 Catholic!
Once again, I just enjoy the thought of players choosing from family figures
or holy heroes to mark their journey in the game.
and of course…it’s always nice to have some trusted friends cheering us on from the sidelines. =)
