Apples to Eyeballs

We all love that Apples to apples game because the two of us who are less competitive (me and sparkle) and the two who are, all have a shot at winning…. and the two of us who “arent” have a chance to develop our inner olympic medal/valedictorian/rhodes scholar seeking selves by being totally unpredictable… making the more practiced at competitiveness who can’t stand the ambiguity of the game INSANE.

Ok, so we are ALL highly competative, and this a dumb question… what is apples to apples and where can I get it???

Having 4 boys of my own has taught me that EVERYTHING can be made into a competitive sport. Getting in your pajamas, burping, and the more traditional sports, games and my favorite – bean or no bean. (This would be guessing whether your mother has put any beans in that bite of food she just fed you. A good way to get a child who says he hates beans to eat them anyway.)

And btw, we LOVE apples to apples!

Awesome post. I am one of the least competitive people in the world, so it’s funny for me to watch the shenanigans of competitive people.

God help you!

Golly you are so right about how children can turn anything into a competition. And betting counts, right? Mr. M will make bets on anything, with no prize in sight — only a winner or a loser. “I bet you I can eat this broccoli in seven seconds!” And of course, I say, “Betcha’ you can’t!” I love losing.

Husband and eldest are super competitive. I’m self-competitive.

My son, however, is the ultimate mr. laid back .

The jury’s still out on the on the fifteen month old, but, given the way she bosses my son, I don’t need to worry about her being competitive.

My kids love to compete against each other , they just all hate losing. Losing a game to me, hurts that much more. It’s a lesson I don’t mind teaching them, or rubbing in…theatrically…with a victory lap around the living room.

Hey! Thanks for stopping by my blog! I’m so glad you did! I LOVE your writing. That paragraph that starts with “Luckily, the pendulum…” so awesome!

I’m so over the “it doesn’t matter if you win or lose” bull crap we feed our kids these days. I try to teach my kids to ALWAYS play to win but it’s ok if you don’t.

I’ll def be back!

My husband and I are super-competitive – trivia, board games, table tennis… you name it! Already our 3yo has a competitive streak and my favourite at the moment is his desire to beat his brother at finishing dinner first! BTW his brother is 16mnths and completely oblivious that there is any kind of competition going on… still usually beats him though.

[Reply]

I’m typically not very competitive as I’d rather just let people do their own thing and I do my own thing and everyone just stay out of everyone’s business, thank you very much…. That is, of course, until someone irritates me. Then the gloves are off, and watch out!

Same thing with games…I like to win, I work to win, I encourage my kids to work to win…but it’s got to be something that really matters to me before I care to knock someone out of the game (be it a board game or the game of life).

When I was dating my husband, he thought I was such a sweet, soft-spoken mouse, until one day I had to correct someone on their inability to honor a contract, in which they denied having done anything wrong…I won that argument and changed the way my husband saw me forever.

Maybe it’s not a matter of when or if I’m competitive but just a matter of choosing my battles?

My son wants to compete with everything from who goes downstairs faster to who gets dressed faster. I think its important that they learn healthy competition from my husband and I. They can’t escape it in the real world so might as well learn the skills before.

Non-competetive is just for contracts, right? I’m with your sons that there isn’t a game made that can’t be turned into a contest…

I would define myself like the previous poster as “self-competitive”, but I love competitive games. I’ve never heard of Apples to Apples, and I don’t really get the point of a noncompetitive game. To clarify, I understand the motivating factors behind attempting to create a noncomptetive game, but that seems like an oxymoron to me.

My year old is already trying to get me to “let her win” arguing that we need to take turns. I applaud her creativity and reasoning, but PLEASE. I’m teaching her to play. I can’t wait to go head-to-head.

In a healthy way, of course.
