About a million years ago, my family bought a game at the British Museum called Passing Through the Netherworld.  It's a copy of an Egyptian funerary game called Senet.  Recently, we unearthed it in my parents' basement, and O loved it.  (Not only did it fit right in with his fascination with all things Egyptian, but he beat me fair and square on the first game!)

One of the library books on ancient Egypt he recently borrowed has directions for how to make your own version.  So we did! 

And he beat me again.
