"Mom! Come play Chess-t with me." Caleb says while bouncing from one foot to the next.
Chess-t club, our new favorite afternoon activity, is not at all like it sounds.
Knights move like an L, bishops diagonal. and castles migrate straight.
The rules of the game are easy... but the name?
Yeah... not so much.
"You mean Chess? Say it with me, Chessssssssss." I repeat over and over again.
Still not getting it.
Chess is now outlawed with the word fork.
Waiting for the day when our tongues are slightly more talented.
Perhaps there is a reason chess is considered to be a matured-grown-up-persons game??
The rules are fine, but the name? Come on!
Clearly the creator of the game (and the fork) did not have a house full of little boys that struggle to say the word underwear correctly....
Castle club?
Anyone??
