Shut the Box

1991, Age 9

This is a dice game known by many names, and the most important memory I have of it is its social significance to my family. At family events even today it still gets dragged out. It involves very simple math, so the young kids of the family can play with the adults and elders, and its inclusion in a small box-like board makes it easy to pass around the circle, so you can carry on your typical social family conversations while playing.
