It’s good to take a break from screens every now and then. The great outdoors has plenty to offer, but there are times when you’re stuck inside for one reason or another (like a surging pandemic). Board games are a fun way to gather everyone around the table to engage in some group escapism.

My family has had a board game night every week for the past year, and we’ve discovered some great family games. These are our favorites, created with the help of my two kids, aged 8 and 11. We didn’t include board game classics that you probably know all about (or own), like Clue, Monopoly, Connect 4, Scrabble, Operation, Chutes and Ladders, Battleship, Jenga, Guess Who, Pictionary, and Risk. Check out our list of the Best Board Games to Play Over Zoom for other ideas.
