Candyland

M got Candyland from her grandparents for xmas, and we cracked it open last night to play our first game.  It was fun :) We played by the rules for the first couple rounds, with M turning over our cards for us, and us moving the game pieces around the board.  It didn't take long, though, until she had the deck flipped over and she was sifting through them, handing us the special "candy" cards, finding the corresponding square on the board, and putting the card there (who needs game pieces).  Then she started picking out different colors and finding the matching squares and putting those cards all over the board.  The game ended when she started matching the squares towards the finish line, and we had her match them right up to the last square.  It lasted about 10 minutes, M had fun, it was the craziest game of Candyland Rae and I had ever played, and all in all I think it was a success.  I guess it'll be a while before the 3 of us are playing a real game *grin*  I also suspect that this is how house rules come about.
