Best Family Games 2009

Last week we were all home in the evening and just didn't feel like watching movies on television and it was too cold to go out so we decided to play a game of "Scattergories". We had the best time. We were up until midnight just having fun with each other.

One of my daughters said, "Maybe we should have a family game night" every week. So That is what we are going to do.

Why not do the same thing? Go ahead and have some fun. You deserve it. You could go out and pick out some new games or dust off some of the old games that you have in the attic. Think of all the hours of fun that you can have with a game. Games are about bringing people together.

Scattergories

My family gives Scattergories 5 stars. This game has given us hours of fun. I recommend this game to any family who has older children.

I don't game a lot with my family.

says:

I have to get more games. Game night is a great way for family to come together.

sandyspider says:

I did growing up. I love games, but I usually win. My husband doesn't like to play even when I tried to let him win.

So, I have to wait for when the family gets together for the Holidays. Then let the games begin!

Never really did.
