I was rather spoilt with this exchange. I mentioned that I would like to try out Candy Land, as growing up it was never available here is Oz but it was always mentioned in the books and tv shows I'd watch. Since we are starting to introduce our girls to boardgames I thought it might be a good one to try. I also mentioned I'd be happy with anything though - especially something my gifter likes to play or something they think we might like given the games we currently play etc.

Anyways not only did I receive Candy Land - which I am probably a tad too excited over :) I can't wait to try it out with my husband and girls this weekend but my gifter also generously gave us a Draw Something game as well! I'm looking forward to breaking that in when our friends come over next (which may now be getting arranged sooner rather than later).

Thanks a bunch!

Edit - We have since given Candy Land a go - the girls absolutely love it! Given the amount of times they have asked to play it in the last 24hrs, I'd say it is well on its way to be a firm favourite around here :)
