BACKGAMMON
Backgammon is one of the oldest known best family board games, and its history can be traced nearly 5,000 years back to archeological discoveries in Mesopotamia. Created for two players, 15 pieces each move between 24 triangles according to the roll of two dice. Some 50 centuries later, the classic Bowtie Backgammon set has a refreshed modern resin design by Jonathan Adler with a lacquer exterior and velvet interior, perfect for a modern family.

SETTLERS OF CATAN
If you start early in the evening or even better have all weekend, this game takes time and set up, but the strategy is worth the time. Settlers of Catan engages players to build the first two settlements on land rich in natural resources. You build roads and new settlements that eventually become cities. Who will rule the city and how do you barter for what you need in resources? It’s a game of smarts and strategy to earn victory points to win the game.

CLUE
I haven’t met a grandparent that didn’t have classic CLUE in a cabinet. Oh, the hours of fun with Colonel Mustard and Miss Scarlett in an easy-to-learn game with lots of kitchy fun! Today, you can find this family favorite in different versions from “Game of Thrones” to “Harry Potter” to Disney to “The Office.” I think I’m still pretty attached to the classic played with pizza rolls and hot chocolate.
