Old time games

Things that occupy kids time have changed so much over the past couple of generations.  Nowdays, it's almost entirely focused on electronics like the Wii, DS, or other gaming systems.  We are not set up for electronics down here so the Christmas presents that the kids got this year were more simple.  Things they could actually use down here. 

Ashlyn got a set of jacks.  To my knowledge she had never played before, but she's been playing a lot.  This morning the maid came in and saw that she was playing.  So she played against Ashlyn for a while.  The lady could really play.  Sort of like the US 50 years ago, I assume this is the kind of thing that most people here grow up doing.  I haven't been in a home yet with a gaming system, although I have seen a couple of computers.  Anyway, the lady really rocked at jacks.  She could go a long time without messing up.
