THAT KEEP ON GIVING

IDEAS FOR FAMILY GAME NIGHT CandyLand

(age 3+) This classic from the 1950s is just as sweet as it was when we were small, a perfect way to introduce Family Game Night. Children learn to take turns and accept the whims of fate as their draw sends them back to Molasses Swamp or skipping through the Candy Cane Forest to be the first one to arrive at Home Sweet Home. Basalt Printing (Specializing all of the classics we grew up with: Sorry!, Life, Clue, Monopoly, Aggravation + more) 23252 Two Rivers Road, Basalt – (970) 927-4705

Duck A-Roo

(age 3+) A primer on memory games. Everything is ducky when Mama Duck has her ducklings in a row. But when players turn over tokens matching the last duckling in line, they call out Duck-a-Roo! Expect lots of quacking, and don’t be surprised if little brains are better at this than Mama and Papa. Glenwood Toys & Gifts (Offering hundreds of products, with an eye for new games that inspire creative thinking and collaboration. Source for the next 2 games + more.) 822 Grand Avenue, Glenwood Springs – (970) 945-1141

Scavenger Hunt

(age 6+) An indoor twist on hide-and-seek, where players earn points for finding items AND for putting them back.

Qwirkle

(age 6+) Dominoes meets Scrabble meets Sudoku. Earn points by building rows and columns of wooden blocks that share a common shape or color. A game of chance, strategy and visual perception that is engaging for players of all ages. An easy choice for travelling.

Tenzi

(ages 10+) The world’s fastest game! Everyone gets ten dice. Someone says, “Go.” Then everyone rolls and rolls as fast as they can until someone gets all their dice on the same number and shouts “TENZI.” Lots of different ways to play. A fun fast frenzy for the whole family! Sawyer’s Closet (Consignment boutique with a selection of brand new items) 327 Main Street, Carbondale – (970) 963-0258

Four-Person Mancala
