SPORE

If you have not yet heard of this PC game and you have a boy, you will most likely hear of it soon. All my older kids, including myself, have all gotten hooked on this game this week. It is very creative and entails a lot of design. Basically, you create your own creatures and follow them along the games perceived evolutionary cycle. I created an herbivore named the Badoozles and they are friendly and social beings and pretty cute I think. John created a ferocious carnivore that resembles a scorpion and named it Scorpio X. Rebecca created an omnivore named monkeymoo and yes, they look like a monkey. :) It is very interactive and a lot of fun. Thanks John - for giving us something fun to do this week with your Christmas present!
