Here at the ConsumerQueen house we like to play games. So when Hasbro sent us some games to try out we were really excited! With the economy the way it is right now, board games offer the family an opportunity to spend quality time together without spending a lot of money. It also gives parents time to teach their kids some important things while they are having fun!
I think MONOPOLY is one of my son’s favorite games. What he doesn’t realize is that this game is teaching him things while he playing! While he is playing he is learning how to handle money, make a budget so he can buy the properties he likes and how to make change. I think all these are important for a kid to learn. They are things that they will be using for the rest of their lives.
Battleship and Clue are some other games that challenge your child’s mind while they are playing. These games are great for your child by making them use their imagination. They also have to remember facts and then use those facts so they can win the game. Not to mention Battleship is great for increasing memory skills.
I think having one night a week set aside for “game night” is a fun way for parents to spend time with their kids. It doesn’t cost a lot of money and you can use this time to learn more about your child. I know our kids love it and I think yours might to.
