Board Game Discovery

Around our home, we love to spend mornings or afternoons together playing board games and card games.  So when I find an amazing one that captures the attention of each member of our family, I must share it.  

This one, Lost Cities, is a new game to us.  It took a few rounds of play before I really understood how the game works.  So much mathematical strategy is involved as you try to make a profit and check that your opponent is not.  Once the game is over scoring the game involves adding, multiplying, and working with negative numbers.  All that to say if you home-school in a way that applies skills learned to real life, this is the game for you.
