Board Games for Families

 



As families look for more ways to bond and spend quality time together, board games have made a huge comeback. But which games are the best for families to play together? Here are our top picks:




1. Monopoly - This classic game never gets old and is great for all ages. It's perfect for teaching children about money and finance, as well as strategy and negotiation skills.


2. Settlers of Catan - This game has taken the board game world by storm in recent years and it's easy to see why. With simple rules and endless possibilities, Settlers of Catan is great for family game nights.


3. Ticket to Ride - This game is a great option for families who love to travel and explore new places. It's also a great way to learn about geography and history.


4. Clue/Cluedo - This classic game is a must-have for any family game collection. It's great for teaching deduction and critical thinking skills.


5. Codenames - This game is perfect for families with older children or teens. It's a team-based game that requires strategic thinking and communication skills.


6. Apples to Apples - This game is perfect for families who love to laugh and have fun. It's a great option for younger children and it's sure to bring out the silliness in everyone. No matter which game you choose, the most important thing is spending quality time with your family. Board games are a great way to unplug and connect with each other, so gather your family around the table and let the fun begin!

Things I'm Loving

It's no secret that I have a love of all things handmade.

I am totally loving these handmade treasures.

Meet Rita, from A Little Vintage

And these Pj's I made for the boys last weekend.


I love that both my boys love them and Caden has already asked for another pair.

I also started cleaning out our walk in robe this week so I will be up-cycling some old t-shirts and jumpers to make the kids some new clothes for winter.

I also have a love for things home grown...

These little peas sprouted yesterday after we planted them over the weekend. Caden was so excited when he spotted them that we had to take a photo... or 2.

And our lemonade tree is fruiting quite a bit at the moment and we pulled about 5 kilograms of fruit off it the other day. We have been making cordial and juice with it ever since.


And I am loving being a homebody these past few days. We have played some board games and done a few craft activities.

One board game in particular has been a big hit here.
 My two eldest love playing it and we are even able to play without tears from anyone for not 'winning'!
