Picture this: two televisions set up with video games, a tableful of sodas, chips, pretzels, Twinkies, and leftover Halloween candy, and 15 tweens hollering and running about, hopped up on sugar. That was the scene at my house this week during our Monthly Video Game Club. It is much like an arcade, but in a more confined space.
Somehow my one-year-old managed to sleep through most of the hullabaloo this time, which is more than I could ask for. And though loud, the kids are amazingly well behaved for all the stimuli. That is why every month through the school year I will continue to open my house for 15 kids to play, though only 15 because I don't think I could squeeze any more in the space!
