Family Games

• Settlers of Catan (original): We love this game. We have two other expansion packs, and the more complicated we make it, the better the kids like it.  We skipped the Junior version and had our young players start by being a team with a parent and then branch out when they're ready.  
• Catan 5-6 Player expansion: Ahem.  You will need this if you have a big family.
• Catan Traders & Barbarians expansion.
• Catan Seafarers expansion.
• Rivals for Catan (a 2-player version).
• Ticket to Ride
• Dixit : an interesting game that requires no reading, Dixit is all about communication. All of our kids enjoy this fascinating game.
