Parenting Moments I Live For

In December, we sent a Christmas box to my sister in Iraq. It never got to her, and so when it came back to us just last week, we opened it to dispose of all the 6 month old heat-ruined edibles. We had also tucked in an unassuming role playing card game that I thought she could use to pass the time with her friends. She’s not really a board game type IRL, so I told my nine year old he could open the game. We just played three rounds. It’s called ‘Coup’ and you have to be a really good bluffer. He beat me in two rounds, I could absolutely not believe it. This little sucker never lies, I had no idea he could be so good at it. It’s making me rethink things.
Also, I highly recommend Coup. So far we’ve only played with two players, and the rounds only take about five minutes. It’s the perfect game for nine year olds. At first it seems like a lot of rules, but once you get the hang of it, you just basically bluff your way through.
