There is nothing wrong with getting together as a family to watch a movie or play some video games. But gathering around a table to play a board game can peel kids off their screens and pull families together in a way few things can. That’s a big reason why family game night is such a treasured tradition in many households, especially during the holidays.
You could opt for classics such as Monopoly and Scrabble of course, but there is so much variety and diversity in modern board games that you would be missing out. If you’re willing to expand your horizons, we promise there’s a new game on this list that will have your family members clearing calendars for a rematch.
