It's cute and fun. Then they have junior catan which my 6 year old niece plays. They are great simplified versions of the original game. I highly recommend them to families who like settlers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/board-games-for-pre-schoolers#post-770676 Thu, 09 May 2013 14:49:43 +0000 Mrs. Cowgirl 770676@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we play memory, spot it, and candy land. trying to get into some more this summer! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/board-games-for-pre-schoolers#post-770670 Thu, 09 May 2013 14:47:57 +0000 BoogieBea 770670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Train: There's a kids version?

There aren't really "winners" so you work together to reach the destination. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/board-games-for-pre-schoolers#post-768075 Wed, 08 May 2013 14:35:09 +0000 Honeybee 768075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've been working on Memory, Go Fish, and Candy Land with DD, but she's not quite there yet. :) I'm so excited for her to get to the point of playing board games, though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/board-games-for-pre-schoolers#post-767587 Wed, 08 May 2013 12:08:25 +0000 T-Mom 767587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Twine: I have been meaning to look at some of these Peaceable Kingdom games.. they look like a lot of fun.

We like cooperative games like these:http://www.peaceablekingdom.com/Products/Stone-Soup-Cooperative-Board-Gamebrbr__GM104.aspx </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/board-games-for-pre-schoolers#post-767550 Wed, 08 May 2013 11:46:34 +0000 T-Mom 767550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What kind of board games does your preschooler or young school-ager play?</p> <p>My DD (almost 5) plays: UNO (Hello Kitty version), Candyland, Hi Ho Cherry O, Memory (Dora version), and Zingo. I want to teach her Old Maid and Go Fish. Her BFF brought over Sequence for Kids during our last play date, which looked really fun. Games have helped a lot with teaching rules, taking turns, and losing gracefully! It is also amazing what their little minds can grasp.</p> <p>I grew up playing a ton of board games, so I'm excited for her! </p>
