赫歇爾與光明節地精

My kids ask for this one every December, and the narrator's timing on Hershel's riddles keeps even my four-year-old hooked. It's a single card, so no fumbling with a stack when bedtime already ran long.

I'd forgotten how funny Hershel's tricks are until we played this card on the second night. The goblin voices had my six-year-old half-hiding behind the couch, and now she asks for it even in July.

My kids are 4 and 7, and even though they don’t fully get all the folklore, the clever goblin traps have them giggling on every car ride. The narrator’s voice is so warm it makes the 20-minute drive to school feel way too short. We’ve already got it queued up for the whole eight nights.
