Junior Monopoly

everytime we go to a toy store i wanted to buy a board game where we can play and have fun together. when i was a kid we have millionare's game and another one that i don't remember anymore. my siblings and i used to play until they outgrown it and i was left playing with the fake money pretending to be a cashier or in a bank. finally one weekend, we decided to buy monopoly. i was surprised that there are different versions now. i got the junior monopoly (ages4-8), an amusement park where you can own a ticket booth and with the same general rules as the original. vivian can practice her counting, addition, subtraction and reading. after three turns she got the concept of the game, buying a booth, roll again when you land on a railway, chance(?) cards (she called it "a mystery" just like in mickey mouse club house), collecting and paying a fee when ever we land on others booth. she ended up the winner the first time we played and she said "i'm rich"...my husband and i called it beginners luck =).
