Spending quality time with your family is so much more fulfilling and rewarding. This post lists some of the games the family can enjoy together with their young children (below 8 yrs)! So much fun, so little time!! 1. Beetle - you only need pencil, paper and the die. Develop numeracy skills. 2. Concentration - memory card games. Helps improve their memory. 3. Hot or Cold? - Search game. Hot = close, Cold = far from the object. Helps develop inferential skills. 4. I'm thinking of an animal..Yes, No. Similar to 20 questions. Helps develop deduction skills. 5. Impressions - act out that famous character, cartoon, relatives. Express themselves. 6. Name that tune - Hum or sing their favorite shows and let them guess. 7. Tall tales - Each person takes turn to tell a 1 minute story and the next person continues where the last person stops. Want more? Don't know how to play? You've tried everything in the list? Have fun!!
