A new game... FEUDAL

Jon just recently introduced Brad to an old game that Jon had growing up, but a very new game for Brad, and his new favorite. Brad loves playing games where there are pieces to set up and battle. He already loves Ticket to Ride (known as Train Game to Brad), and Axis and Allies (which Brad calls Army Man Game). Well, Brad now has his new favorite game FEUDAL (affectionately known as Horse Game - with respect to the knights on horses). Everyday since Brad was introduced to his game he has asked to play it. Of course, he hasn't gotten to play it everyday... I ususally tell him that when his dad comes home he can play for a while. If we let him, he will play for hours by just setting up the pieces and pretending to have wars and rescues and castles and battles, etc. I love watching him play make believe. Whenever he opens the game, he remembers to tell me that "Dad says we be very careful." What a smart kid! Can anyone say... LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON! Jon is trying to teach Brad some of the rules so there is some sense to the game, but Brad is content just playing pretend battles.
Brad is so content and totally in his element!
His face here is reflective of making some sort of horse or battle noises. He is totally a boy, and all those fun war noises just come naturally... and of course his dad taught him some too!
