Pizza Box Football is a great game to play with kids young and old, so I posted my review on Father Geek. This is a particularly good game for a Christmas gift, since gridiron football is ramping up for college bowl games and pro playoffs!
It's Your Move
What I am doing when I am not doing what's expected of me - a blog for family and casual gaming. I firmly believe all games are educational games in some manner. Board games create friendships, build families and teach social skills. This site is dedicated to helping families and friends find great family games and casual games to play.
zwischenzug (ZVI-shen-tsoog) — noun
A chess tactic in which a player, instead of playing the expected move, first interpolates another move, changing the situation to the player's advantage (such as gaining material or avoiding what would otherwise be a strong continuation for the opponent).

Father Geek Article on Buying Chess Sets as Gifts
Last year I wrote this post about buying chess sets for the Holidays. I covered the topic again over at Father Geek. If you read last year's post you won't find this one that different. Whichever version you read, it makes sense to buy a child a good chess set that will last for years.

Moving along...
Today I am glad to announce that I will be joining my voice to those gentlemen at Father Geek. This move will allow me to participate in the larger discussion of family gaming, including games for smaller children. Going forward, I will be posting exclusively there. Thanks to all of my loyal readers, the steadfast few, as well as all of my family members that read this primarily out of a sense of duty or guilt.
