Best HomeSchool Place

Some of my best memories are playing games with my family, both when I was a child AND now that I have children.  Some of my favorite games to play as a kid where Yahtzee!, Scrabble, Uno, and Trivia Pursuit (although I”m much better at playing Trivia today than I ever was as a kid  LOL!).  I can remember no matter how many games or hands of cards we played, I was always begging for “Just ONE more!!”  Of course if who ever I was begging gave in to my request, they’d get more begging after that game was done!  LOL!  Now, my sons are the ones begging for just one more game.  Which usually makes my mom burst into laughter and tell me it’s my “comuppance”.

Yahtzee! was the game that my grandmother and I loved to play together when I was about 12. I spent almost the whole summer at my grandmothers place and we were either playing card games or Yahtzee!.  I think one of the things that she liked about it so much was that it could be a quick game or a long tournament.  That’s certainly one of the reasons I still like playing it today.  You can have fun in under 30  minutes or a lot of fun in a few hours, it’s totally up to you!  Now, we have Yahtzee! for the Playstation.  It may not be the most excited video game out there, but it’s still a fun game for the family to play together, and one even “Old Mom” can play!  LOL!

My love of games and my sons love of games is why I wanted to tell you about this new feature at Time To Play Mag, called Family Game Night.  There you can find a list of great games to play for your Family Game Night, vote on what game was your favorite, or leave a comment about a game that you loved playing that wasn’t on your list.  There are a ton of great games listed there, most of which I not only know about but still love playing.  So if you need an idea of what game would be great to make a part of your Family Game Night, head on over to Time To Play Mag and find out what they have to say.
