Simon is back. SIMON IS BACK. (Just making sure you understand how excited we are.)

I still remember spending hours on end playing Simon, that awesomely fun hand-held eletronic game which had you imitating the light patterns as they got increasingly hard. Get it: Simon Says?

I cannot even believe it’s back.

I still credit my strong memory today to the game Simon and I don’t care what 3-D motion sensor technology it does not have, your kids will still be captivated by the utter simplicity, and the innate desire to beat one’s own score with bragging rights for the rest of eternity. (I got THIRTY-TWO. How many did you get?)

We are so getting this. And stocking up on AAA batteries now. –Liz
