Question of the day 11/14

Post by Kimandasmo »

 What is your favorite baord game of all time?? Do you play board games often in your family??


I adore the game- MR. Wiggly ( played it constantly as a child- but can't find it as an adult) I also like to play Clue and Trivial pursuit.
If we play a bord game 6 times a year that would be alot-- my dh despises all board games and will never play with us- so we just sont do it as often as we should--- I think that is going to be a resolution for next year-- play more board games with my girls!!

 Ds loves monopoly, so if and when we play this is the game. He is now 22 so this isn't too often. When he was younger we played Clue and he just loved Life.

 as a kid we loved Monopoly, we had (ad I still have) my dad's set from his childhood.  As a teen, all the neighboorhood kids got together in the summer and when we couldn't swim in my pool, we had running rummy games.  When my ds was growing up, he loved to play checkers with my grandmother or he and I played Scruples almost every night

 I've never heard of Ticket to Ride.

We play board games occasionally, but we play UNO a lot!

 I use to love to play Scruples.  Can't find the game anymore though but was interesting what you learn about your friends!

 I like board games and card games. My kids are 1 and 3 so we will probably get into them more in the next couple of years. Monopoly is one of my favs.

 I used to play board games alot as a child..my favorites were Clue and Pay Day.  I don't play them often with my kids..I should, cos when we do sit down and play, it's alot of fun!

 with the range of age of my kids, board games are hard right now.

We do play a lot of chess, though.

 When I was a kid we had an entire game closet. 

Feeley Meeley was hilarious! 

Image

Another oldie but goodie was "Shenanigans" (It was also a Saturday game show when I was a kid)
Image

"Trouble" was a favorite, too:
Image
We also had "Operation"

"Twister"

"Monopoly"

"Scrabble"

And "Yahtzee"

And "Sorry!"

And "Connect Four"

And lots more but I just can't think of them all.

 As a kid I played Clue, Operation and Monopoly.  With my kids, keeping up with the pieces to games has been challenging.

For those of you with small kids, have you ever played Crocodile Dentist?  That is a fun game.

 Trivial Pursuit.  I love knowledge games rather than strategy ones.  Fortunately my DS loves boardgames, too.
