Chuck-e-Cheese

So today, I took my nephews to their all time favorite place, Chuck-E-Cheese. For those of you who might not know what chuck-e-cheese is, it's basically an arcade with a lot of games for kids. My nephews love this place because they get to win tickets which you can trade in for toys depending on how much points you get. As I was sitting there watching my nephews as well as the other kids around playing the games, I start to realize that kids these days can get pretty competitive. Even at little ages, they understand what it means to lose or win, and I was extremely amazed by that. Even though this place is known to just have fun and enjoy the games, I notice that the majority of the kids that are there are only there to receive as much tickets as possible to get little toys that you can buy for $1 at local stores. #1 example are my nephews. Each nephew had equal amount of tokens, 125 each. But it depends on how you play the games in order to receive the amount of tickets. After all the tokens were used up, my nephews compared each others tickets to see who had the most. My little nephew ended up with the most, which meant that his older brother became extremely angry. He started a fit and of course, started crying. Just at the age of 7 and 6, they already know that losing doesn't feel good. It's quite interesting to understand how the mind of each age works psychologically. =)
