Born of Desperation...

This may come as a shock to some people (riggghhhht!) but on occasion, my kids have been known to squabble and bicker with each other for hours on end, driving their mother insane. After a desperate prayer for an idea for a distraction, this is what popped into my mind. Perhaps another frazzled mother will be able to benefit from this idea.

Chalk on the kitchen table, with point values for each opening. We flicked coins from the end of the table and tallied up our scores.

This would also make a fun family night game, now that I think about it!
