December’s for Playing
Sometimes the busy holiday season has us scurrying
around so fast, we forget to stop and play. Keep m
mmd, though, some of December’s heritage It’s the
month that the first ball-beanng roller skates were patented
in 1884. It’s when Monopoly was first introduced in
1935 In fact, it’s the birthday month of the founder of
Parker Brothers. George S Parker, born m 1866. It’s
when the first YMCA was opened m 1851, and when
Charles Dicken’s A Christmas Carol was first
published m 1843 It was the month of the first table ten
tournament m 1901 So light a fire, get
t your books, board games, and Ping
’ong paddles, and take time to play
Play consists of whatever a
body is not obliged to do.

additional spin cycle in the washer first.
