* I received some of these board games in exchange for sharing my thoughts with you- others I purchased with my own money. All opinions are my own. This post contains affiliate links.*<\/em><\/p>\n I don\u2019t know about your family- but ours LOVES board games. My Husband and I both grew up in households with large families, and we all enjoyed a rousing game of\u00a0Scrabble<\/a> and a table flipping ending to a heated game of Monopoly<\/a>. As a homeschooling family we even use board games to help with math and reading skills.\u00a0<\/em>The great thing about board games is they\u2019re fun for the whole family, educational, and a great way to spend screen-free<\/strong> time together. I thought the Holidays would be a perfect opportunity to share some of our current favorite board games with you.<\/p>\n Like I said, board games are a great way to supplement your curriculum if you\u2019re homeschoolers like us. Or a great way to reinforce what your kiddos are learning at school-without feeling like homework! That\u2019s why these games from Outset Media<\/a> are a great choice.<\/p>\n I hope that this list helps make your Holiday shopping a little simpler! What board games does your family love?<\/p>\n<\/a>Whether you\u2019re looking for educational games, games just for fun, or you\u2019re a fellow Harry Potter lover, I\u2019ve got you covered!<\/p>\n
<\/a>Explore the 50 States<\/a> teaches interesting history and geography facts about each state that makes learning about our country fun.<\/p>\n
<\/a>While Professor Noggin\u2019s Outer Space Card Game<\/a> makes learning about space fun with trivia, true\/false, and multiple choice questions- with easy and hard skill level questions. Making it fun for all ages.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Yeti in my Spaghetti<\/a> never fails to end in an eruption of giggles. It\u2019s a cute and simple game that\u2019s great for kids. But, the adults also get involved- trying their darndest to figure out the best way to play. This one has been on repeat the last 2 years in our home.<\/p>\n
<\/a>I don\u2019t know why- but with kids, the messier the game the better? Soggy Doggy<\/a> is great for that. While I\u2019d rather not play- I know a bunch of kids that love to!<\/p>\n
<\/a>Anyone else\u2019s kids obsessed with Harry Potter? OR maybe you are! (We all are!) This Triwizard Maze Game<\/a> from Pressman Toy<\/a> is fun for all ages. Isn\u2019t there something about those fast-paced pop\u2019n\u2019race style games that makes everyone get excited to play?<\/p>\n
<\/a>The Magical Beasts Board Game<\/a>\u00a0is a fun way to re-live your favorite Harry Potter characters, \u2018featuring a new swinging-leaf feature that allows players to move between 2 separate game boards\u2019. It\u2019s different than any other board game I\u2019ve seen.<\/p>\n
