Alex found my old hockey game in the garage the other day and he bugged me for a couple of days to clean it up and bring it inside. I finally gave in and found all the parts, cleaned it all up, and brought it inside. I think I’ve created a monster. On Saturday he played for an hour and half straight and even at that we had to pry him away from the game. The next morning when he woke up the first thing out of his mouth, “Lets play Hockey”.

He absolutely loves playing the game but it’s kind of frustrating for anyone playing with him because he hasn’t yet been able to figure out how to move more then one player at a time. So what usually happens is that he picks a player and you have to keep the puck close to that player. Then after some time he moves on to another player and you have to keep the puck close to that player.

During the course of a game we also end up switching sides a couple of times depending on the colour of the goalie that Alex wan’t to be. It’s loads of fun.
