Fun Family Board and Card Games for Christmas 2021
Does your family enjoy old-fashioned board and card games?
I think Family Game Night is a wonderful tradition that should be brought back into play!
My mega family has always loved playing games.
This crew could literally make a game out of anything!
I thought your family might enjoy playing games too, so I came up with this list of classic games to play with your family during this holiday season!
The Game of Monopoly
My son, Jesse, asked for a new Monopoly game almost every single year of his childhood!
One year, I thought I would shake things up a little by getting him a different game.
It certainly shook him up!
He wanted to know exactly where his Monopoly game was!
Today, there are so many different Monopoly editions.
You can get a Fortnite, Star Wars Monopoly, Disney Monopoly, Builder’s Monopoly, and even a Monopoly named after your hometown!
There are electronic Monopoly games, a card game edition, or just the good ole fashioned original board game.
Does your family enjoy a good game of Monopoly?
The Game of Chess
Most of my children love the game of chess.
I am not sure how many chess sets we have gone through over the years.
I have always implemented the power of suggestion in our home.
That means I bought a lot of chess sets and set them out where they could be easily accessed.
The little kids would run off with the chess pieces, and the boards would inevitably get broken.
I would just buy another set until everyone just fell in love with the game!
I used this same technique with musical instruments, and I am here to tell you, the power of suggestion works!
Our family was thrilled the year we all pitched in to get Jesse a real knights and castles medieval chess set.
It was definitely worth the money!
The Game of Uno
Who doesn’t love a good game of Uno?!?
My family absolutely loves to play these good old-fashioned games that have stood the test of time.
My crew can get pretty rowdy while playing a round of Uno, though!
Does your family play Uno?
The Game of Yahtzee
Our family absolutely loves to play Yahtzee!
Christmas just wouldn’t feel like Christmas at the Foote house without a big game of Yahtzee.
When my six sons were younger, I used to say I would only play Yahtzee with them because everything else turned into tackle football!
It is the perfect game for children of all ages.
Even your toddlers can roll the dice!
The Game of Checkers
Checkers is just one of those games that every generation seems to enjoy.
We always have a checker board setting on our game shelf.
I really like these checker rugs with huge checker pieces.
My grandchildren’s little chubby hands have no problem holding on to these game piece.
The Game of Sorry
The classic game of Sorry is fun for kids of all ages.
We always have Sorry on our game shelf.
I think this giant edition of Sorry would be a huge hit at the Foote house!
How much fun would this be!?!
The Game of Trouble
My family already loves to play the game of Trouble, but they would really love to play the Star Wars edition!
Is your family a fan of Star Wars?
The Game of Phase 10
Phase 10 has always been one of my daughter, Jaimie’s favorite card game.
The Game of Skip-Bo
Skip-Bo is another one of those fast-paced card games that my family really enjoys.
The Game of Battleship
Remember having to do graphs in math class?
Battleship is basically graphs.
Don’t tell my children, but that is why I always made sure they had the Battleship game to play.
As a homeschooling mama, we sneak schoolwork into every area we can!
The Game of Candy Land
My youngest daughter, Sarah, always asked for Candyland for Christmas.
The Game of Chutes of Ladders
Chutes and Ladders is another fun game to play with your children and grandchildren.
