Who remembers the children’s game Candy Land?
My kids and I were playing it the other day and it dawned on me how much we can learn about life from it.
Things like:
– Life is a winding path
– Sometimes you take MASSIVE steps forward (thank you, Queen Frostine)
– Sometimes you take teeny tiny steps forward that may not seem like anything significant, but they end up being meaningful
– Sometimes you draw a card that sends you way backwards, right when you’re at the finish line (darn Plumpy!!)
– There are shortcuts you can take, but they don’t always work out like you thought they would
I know, I know… it’s JUST a game!!
But maybe there are lessons even in the most silly of games.
What do y’all remember about Candy Land?
Any other games that have taught you a life lesson?
