Punch Buggy

Even though I considered the downsides, I taught E how to play Punch Buggy.

He was taking an interest in the VW Bugs, which are made in the next state over (Puebla), and are in great abundance here. And I thought it would be a good way to practice his colors in Spanish. (I have a fear that people at his preschool will think he is stupid because he looks so big and can only count to ten and name three colors.)

So far, he thinks that if you see the bug, you get punched, which may be why the punching has been limited to light bumps. We tried to change it to Fist-bump Buggy, but he would have none of that nonsense.

It's a fun game, because there are so so many bugs. We probably saw two dozen on a five-block walk to the Mercado and back.
