This summer has been quite nice as, for the first time, he's shown an interest in the things I've been doing. I've even had the chance to do a simple dungeon bash with him which taught him the basic of dice rolling and practiced counting out squares. I thought I came up with the rules but I'm fairly sure my subconscious has kicked up a version of Rab's Knight's Quest work.
In any case, we've had a great time. So to commemorate it, and because this blog is as close to a permanent record as I have, here's a collection of pictures of my son geeking out with his old man.

It's been a fun summer and bodes well for the future. Thanks for reading as always.
Brilliant. Sharing the geeky fun with your children is one of the joys of life!
ReplyDeleteCertainly is :-)
DeleteHow absolutely adorable and best of luck to the pair of you. Just back from our first day and completely shattered, the summer already seems like a long way away!
ReplyDeletelol, shattered after one day back Mr Awdry! 😉
DeleteIt was a very long day! :)
DeleteI'm dreading my first day back; I've missed both training days due to childcare so I'm walking in and straight into teaching with no prep time. Yikes.
DeleteFantastic stuff sir, thanks for sharing. Can't wait for a day like this with my son, but he's only 18 months right now!
ReplyDeleteI've been o,aging the ground work since he was tiny; telling him to look for elf tracks in the woods and check under bridges for trolls...
