Triominos

Absolutely the best christmas present we got this year was the game called Triominos. It's like dominos but all the pawns or buttons are triangel shaped. It makes it much more interesting and challenging than dominos. We've been playing that a lot after christmas. We play it all together but many times after children's bed time we but on the radio and play it just the two of us. One thing we do differently than we are supposed to do. We don't count the points we play it just like domino.

When we lived in Colorado we had triominos there too. We loved playing it already then and I decided that we should have one in Finland too. It took almost ten years before I was able to find one from here (or actually before Santa had his helpers to make one for us :)).

I'm so glad that we now have triominos. I encourage every one of you to have one for yourselves too. It's so much more instructive, reasonable and enjoyable to spend time playing a good game than just staring the tv which I tend to do far to much on holidays.

By the way my brother has his own blog too. It's in Finnish but if you are an english speaker you might enjoy the pictures.
