Family Board Games for Christmas

14 gifts

Family board games for Christmas that work with mixed ages and mixed levels of patience: fourteen games from five-minute fillers to a full evening, all checked in stock on Amazon UK with player counts and age ratings in each note. The modern classics are here (Ticket to Ride, Catan, Azul, Codenames) for families with teenagers, alongside the quick ones that get played before dinner (Dobble, Sequence, Herd Mentality), the loud ones (Articulate!, Throw Throw Burrito), and the ones that travel to the grandparents' house well (Labyrinth, Cluedo, Trivial Pursuit Family Edition, King of Tokyo, Blokus). Nothing needs an app, a battery or more than ten minutes of rules. If you buy only two, Dobble suits the youngest players and Codenames suits the biggest table. Prices are tracked so you can watch for the pre-Christmas drops.
