Paging Dr. Moon , Dr. Collin Moon. The kids received several boardgames for Christmas this year . Collin had been begging for Operation in the store, I had warned him how hard it was and I didn't think he was old enough yet . But when I found it on a good sale I figured the price was right and if he couldn't play it the other kids would.
Collin LOVES this game and I found it to be abit different from the game I had as a child. For one example it has more sound effects and the pieces have changed too. I sure don't recall the dude having a cell phone back in the early 80's. So far several times a day Collin sits down to "practice operation" he has asked me what the sick guys name is ( He's already concerned about his patients, he doesn't consider him just some random sick guy). Best part of this game he can play ALONE. The older kids are already burned out playing Candyland and Chutes & Ladders with a 4 year old who likes to make up the rules as he goes . But he seems to be having so much fun playing that it sucks you in to giving it a try for old times sake. All this operation practice is bound to help him in Med School. Oh I dare to dream because we sure need a Doctor in the family!
