Find A Board Game For Your Next Family Game Night

Board games are fun, old-fashioned methods of entertainment that guarantee a good time for you and your family. The friendly - and sometimes cutthroat - competition makes for an evening full of laughter, excitement and fun.

Bond With Your Family Over A Board Game

Playing a board game is one of the best ways to connect with your family. Often, families find that they are too busy with work or school to sit down and spend time with one another. When they do find the time, they typically struggle to disconnect from their cellphones, video games or television shows to focus on one another. A board game is a great way to encourage your family members of all ages to bond and have fun without staring at a screen.

While games are a great way to get your whole family off their phones and having fun, it can be difficult to choose the perfect game - there are just so many available! To make it easier for you to choose, we have compiled the best family board games that you are sure to love.

Play A Classic Board Game

When thinking of family games, the first thing that comes to many peoples' minds is classic board games such as Monopoly or The Game of Life. Setting up a tabletop game board, doling out the pieces and cards, and gathering around the table to play for hours on end. These are fond memories for parents, and ones that kids will cherish as they grow up.

Share these memories with your children with a classic board game like the Betty Boop Edition of Monopoly. If you enjoy Taboo, try the family-friendly version called Poetry for Neanderthals. Players earn points by getting others to guess the words and phrases, except they can only be single-syllable words. If they use words with more than one syllable, an opposing player gets to hit them with a 2-foot inflatable club. Both kids and parents will love this board game!

Pass The Time With Card Games

Having young children can be busy. There are many extracurriculars you have to drive them to, and homework that needs to be done, all the while children's attention span is only so long. Card games are simple and easy to play anywhere, anytime. They also offer great fun in a short amount of time, making these the top choice for busy families everywhere.

There are many card games available for your next road trip or night in. Kids will love the games New Phone, Who Dis? and Incohearant Family Edition because of their simple premise and promise of great fun. For example, Incohearant Family Edition is a popular card game similar to Cards Against Humanity. Players pull two cards, the first one featuring gibberish and the other with the answer. Each player reads the gibberish aloud and has other players guess what they are trying to say. The gibberish will have people of all ages laughing and having fun.

Get Your Adrenaline Pumping With Strategy Games

Do you and your kids enjoy reading clues and doing guesswork? Or rushing to beat the clock to solve a mystery? Or maybe you just want to challenge your kids to be better team players? If so, guessing games are perfect for your next party! There are a number of strategy games like Codenames and Escape Room The Game that is designed for kids and involves teamwork, scheming, and investigation.

In Codenames, two teams compete to learn the real names of 25 secret agents. Players use clues to try to guess the real name of the agents and take home the prize. Escape Room The Game - Family Edition is another exciting game where parents and kids work to solve puzzles, search and uncover clues and escape the house in 60 minutes.
