    Games

    Best games for kids and families.

    Kids learn all sorts of skills by playing games. We have family game night at least once a week and the kids spend a lot of time playing by themselves, too. Here you will find both DIY games, especially math games, as well as our games of the month which include instructions and tips for playing with younger kids at the table.
    We are especially fond of DIY games from around the world, you can view all our traditional games and instructional videos here.
