Our Favorite Family Board Games

Our family loves playing board games and we often share them on Instagram stories. And over the years, we’ve gotten requests to do a post of our favorites with a quick rundown of each one (like the cliff notes version of each game). We currently have about 30 in our game cabinet, covering a pretty wide variety: card games, party games, dice games, puzzle games, and more. We love games that are as fun for grown-ups as they are for kids (ours are 13 and 9), so with the exception of a couple of adults-only versions that we’ve clearly labeled, everything linked in this post is great for the whole family.

I’ve categorized our games into the groups you see below. But be warned – there’s definitely lots of overlap!

  • Our All-Time Favorite Go-To Games
  • Our Favorite Group Or Party Games
  • Our Favorite 4-Person Games
  • Our Favorite 2-Person Games
  • Our Favorite Fast-Paced Games
  • Our Favorite Chill Games
  • Our Favorite Easy-To-Learn Games
  • Our Favorite Small Or Travel Games

I’ve included a brief description of each game, but to avoid repeating them every time a game appears in a list, you may need to scroll to a different category to find the summary.
