One Night Ultimate Werewolf

I bought this game because I thought it would be fun to play around Halloween last year. (I use any excuse to buy a game. 😂) Over the past 3 months, it has become our favorite game to play as a family. The kids love it, because it is hilarious and fun. Their dad and I love it because one round only ...

Check the Fridge

Check the fridge is a fun way to practice adding to 25 with a group of children. Since it involves bluffing, it is most fun with 4 to 6 players. While I'm not sure how helpful the math aspect of this game really was, especially for my kids in mid-elementary and older, ALL of my kids thought this ...

Dragonwood

Dragonwood has been a family favorite of ours for a couple years now. On my son's 6th birthday recently, he got to pick a family game to play and this one was his top choice. My kids love the concept of collecting enchantments and defeating monsters. I love that it requires critical thinking skills ...

Into the Forest

This site uses affiliate links. I receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. Thank you!

This is one of the best educational games I have ever played. It teaches kids the science behind food chains. Kids can work on their math skills since you need to add a series of single digit numbers at the end to total your score. Best of all, it is really fun. Even young kids can understand the ...

Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza

This is hands down my kids' new favorite game (ages 3 to 10). They got it for Christmas and we have played it several times in the past week. I'm not sure it would count as "educational" by any standards, but it definitely fosters family togetherness. It also allows kids to work on their attention ...

Clumsy Thief in the Candy Shop

My family has been playing the original Clumsy Thief game for about a year. It is still one of my 10 year old's favorites. (See my Clumsy Thief review here.) However, that game, which involves adding to 100, is a little challenging for my 5 and 7 year olds. I was so happy to discover recently that ...

Professor Noggin Games

My kids absolutely LOVE playing these Professor Noggin games during dinner. My 8 year old in particular will pretty much beg and is super bummed if we're not able to for some reason. However, all four of my kids (ages 2, 4, 6, and 8) really enjoy playing these games and are learning a ton. Somehow ...

Clumsy Thief

This site uses affiliate links. I receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. Thank you!

What I love about Clumsy Thief is that not only is it fun, but it also helps my kids with their math skills. My 8 year old is pretty good at math, but he still gets confused sometimes and thinks that 85 plus 25 is 100. Some things just take practice, and this game is a great way for kids to get in ...

Sleeping Queens

This site uses affiliate links. I receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. Thank you!

This is my new favorite game for family game night. The box says 8 and up, but my 6 year old can play independently and my 4 year old can play when he "partners" with his dad or me. It is a fantastic mix of simple strategy and luck giving even the youngest players a chance at winning, while still ...

Ruckus Junior

My 3 year old and I sometimes have issues. Yes, I know...if I can't get along with a 3 year old, it probably says more about my maturity level than it does about his. However, I have to say that this game (Ruckus Jr.) is really helping our relationship. Product: Ruckus Junior Company: Imagination ...
