While Daddy tried very hard to teach Elizabeth some chess basics, she wanted to set everything up and knock it down instead.

Raglan Shire's Tiny Battle Chess Game. Tiny designers created costumes for the pieces. Tinies were the pieces and chess masters Cyzicus and Stephen played the game. But the outcome is not the usual - because tinies had to battle for each square they wanted to take ... and whoever won the battle got the square.

PLAYING WITH SENSES by Makiko Shinoda

 

PERCEPTIBLE CHESS GAME

 

What makes a toy a good toy? Room for sensory discovery, imagination and creativity. Research that Makiko Shinoda has done on the relationship between children and their toys shows that these elements are not found as often in plastic toys or computer games in which form and function are standardized. But there is a different way. A universal toy set that evolves over time and with a child’s age. While toddlers can use the set as building blocks, older children can play chess with it. A game of chess as a metaphor in which generations, cultures, ethnicities can meet. The pieces in the game do not look like chess pieces; they vary in weight, smell, material, form and texture and this allows the players to mould the game in whichever way they choose. A toy for a lifetime.

It was interesting watching the chess game of everyone planting their talks in different slots, trying not to put too many high-demand ones in competition with each other. Read: at the same time as one they wanted to see.

Life is like a chess game.

We move pieces according to what we think will benefit us, we make strategies to move forward, we focus on what we think is important.

And sometimes, we feel like we’re about to lose the game. Like there’s not a single chance of us winning the match. Like there’s no escape. Like we’re trapped.

It is that moment, both in chess and in life, when we get lost, we get confused. When we unfocus and go out of the path.

It is that moment when you don’t know anymore what to do and you just want to get out. Get out of your thoughts, get out of your mind, get out of your life, get out of the game.

Hubby and I went to NYC yesterday, to the PhotoPlus Expo. Fortunately, the weather was a lot better than last year when we went during the October snow storm.. We aren't supposed to get bad weather until tomorrow. Which is the same day we got the snow last year... Anyway... we had a GREAT time at the Expo and a wonderful walk back to the train. We walked through Bryant Park. The part was full of vendors and people of all types. The skating rink was open and people were enjoying what seems to be the last of the uncold weather. I had been snapping all the way from the Expo and was thrilled when I captured this photo.

Xiangqi, also called Chinese chess, is a strategy board game for two players. It is one of the most popular board games in China, and is in the same family as Western chess, chaturanga, shogi, Indian chess and janggi. Also a popular pastime in Vietnam, where it is known as cờ tướng.

Spring break with the girls and the Pacific Ocean. I drive south to San Diego, we road trip up. So much Mexican, shopping, pee breaks, polaroids, jam sessions, cuddling, swimming, and an overwhelming amount of love with three best friends and my home.
