In sifting through the vast inventory of games my kids play (during halftime of the MLS Cup Soccer game - I'm sure you watched it too), I think I found the worst game created - Travel Battleship. Not only are you teaching kids the art of warfare, but you are neatly packaging it with hundreds of tiny plastic pieces that either wind up wedged in car seats, backpacks, or underwear (don't ask). Hmmm... wonder where it's made? According to Hasbro's web site, and their corporate responsibility section, 80% of the world's toys are made in China, even though they have a factory in Massachusetts and Ireland. I think we can do without Battleship in the new economy.
I'm reading Hot, Flat, and Crowded now. Pretty daunting stuff.
