Looking for a few ideas for your next family fun night?
It’s a blast from the past with 20 board games every kid should play! These are classics that have been around for a long time. And they’re all great ones to play with your family all year long.
We love family game night at the Smith House, and over the years, we’ve built quite a game collection. But usually, we end up playing one of the classics. We love the old school board games. And many of our all-time favorites are games that have been around for quite some time. So here’s a list of classic board games we think every kid should play:
20 Board Games Every Kid Should Play
Who doesn’t love this childhood classic?
As a kid, this was my favorite. I always wished I could actually live in Candy Land as I played.
This is a great game to get everyone thinking. It’s a perfect way to teach kids about the process of elimination and using what you know already to figure out the rest.
My youngest son loves this game, and I like how you have two different tracks to play.

Ok, so Scrabble has always been a favorite for this word nerd. But seriously, it’s a great game to practice spelling and build vocabulary with kids.
We have a really good time with this one, and sometimes play it over and over again.

I think I’ve played just about every one of those games and my favorite as a child was Chinese Checkers. I adored that game. These days it’s scrabble. My husband and I love to play that game and the grands love it, too.
Thanks for the blast from the past!
