    Bananagrams for word nerds. The more people the better.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Uno ?
    We started an eternal uno game.
    A couple hands a week, keeping score til death.
    The worst of times..they don't phase me,
    even if I look and act really crazy.

    I forgot the best game to get 10-12 year old kids into.
    A few different varieties:

    1.  Mow the lawn
    2.  Rake the leaves
    3.  Shovel the snow
    4.  Vacuum the house
    5.  Do the laundry

    This is the most rewarding game, to parents, and the kids can earn a little coin and a measure of responsibility.

    Good luck!  :lol:

    Reminded me of this

    @Wobbie played "draw on the cave walls" when he was 10-12.  Said it was great fun.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    When i would get bored around that age, my parents would have me roll pennies (for whoever understands what that is). Simple life.

    We have a hard time keeping the puzzle on the table for days without a kid or animal knocking something off.

    Bought ticket to ride and racko.
    Kids lost interest in ticket to ride after a while, but I think it mostly was on account of the extra time it took to learn the game.
    We will definitely play again.
    Racko is a classic from my childhood.
    Kids loved this. (fit more into their youtube addled attention span)

    Interesting about Ticket to Ride. My nieces turn 10 next month and they get really into it, especially trying to figure out other players' routes and blocking them. They don't care if it messes up their own game, they just get a kick out of thwarting others :lol: Maybe after they learn it better it will become more fun for them.
