I guess it's sort of a version of arm wrestling and thumb war sort of morphed together. Somehow it's fun and they (mostly) don't get hurt. Ha! Debbie - no way!! You guys bought the Snoopy Game! How fun. Look, I've inspired a family all the way in NY to add more Peanuts to their lives. Ha!! I'm glad they are having fun with it. My kids are crazy about it. I get a wee bit tired of the bam, bam, bam sounds but I can usually get them to turn it down when necessary. :) Jodi - this is new to me as well.

Even my hubby loves this game. Not sure I want to share the Poke War game with them! Yikes, I can invision lots of tears in this house. It sounds sort of fun, though.

Maybe I should try it with Dave, though, after the kids are in bed! It even sounds fun enough for me to want to try it. Maybe I should try it with Dave, though, after the kids are in bed!

I tried using brute force against Joshua, and (as I stood over him, forcing my index finger into his abdomen) was stealthily 'poked' in the foot by my wily opponent. Clearly I must learn to strategize ... I'm thinking of organizing a competition here at work. Who wouldn't want a chance to vanquish their manager, or see them flop around on the floor to avoid a poke? It turns out that this is more complicated than a simple test of strength.
