THISISIT. I have never been one for playing computer games, being addicted to my phone or Internet games. However, watching my daughter on Moshi Monsters. mm, adopt a monster then feed it, play with, buy it things etc etc. intrigued me. The game was a children's version of I understand Ugly Birds. (I think that is the name from my Husbands IPhone). Anyway she played it very well, but sometimes just couldn't get the angle right.
I then noticed that she was pulling the monster on the catapult back enough, therefore it did not reach its destination. Frustrated for her, I wanted to have a go to see if I could do. This is not me, I don't do these things.
Anyway, everytime she missed, I tried to get the laptop to show her, but she was not giving it up this was her challenge and no mother of hers was going to have a go. Level 8 she was still going good, but not always getting the results she needed.
Eventually after may times of "I could do that", "please can I have a go" "just let me try". Yes I had become the child and almost an addict. Eventually she reluctantly handed the laptop over to me.
To her delight and my surprise I did very well, got her onto the higher level and gained her more points than she had ever achieved. ( points buy food and nice things for the monster). What a good game and I think she was impressed!!!!
When the game was shut down, she disappeared, only to re-appear with a beautiful card. I quote words and spellings hers.
Well don Mum!
