Games NOT to play with a three year old

Ever since my daugher was born I've been waiting for her to grow up so she could play board games with me. Hubby won't play board games under any circumstances (even when I make lavish promises and/or threats, I've tried both)

Since I knew Hubby was going to be working late again tonight, I decided that tonight was the night. Chutes and Ladders says it is for children three and older. Hooray! Munchkin Girl is a bright three year old so that should work great. I had visions of us happily playing Chutes and Ladders after dinner...she would laugh and expertly move her game piece all around the board and would suddenly know all the numbers...a truly idyllic scene, right??

Well...let's just say that I think they should change the box to ages four and older...or maybe Munchkin Girl is just too hyper. This pretty much sums up our night of Chutes and Ladders:

Yes, she is looking the other way while reading a book and singing. There is still hope. Little Buddy will grow up someday.
