My son’s 5th birthday is coming up and I would like to gift him a board game. Usually only the two of us play and he likes for example Carcassonne Junior, Brandon the Nrave or Karuba Junior. Any good suggestions for a new game, maybe also something collaborative?

  • I’ve tried compiling all the suggestions from this thread, with BGG links.

    I have a 4 and 6¾-year-old, but our game collection doesn’t quite fit the audience, and we usually end up playing Star Of Africa with heavily dumbed-down house rules (and it’s already a pretty dumb game to begin with) to keep it interesting for the little one.

    This thread is gold! 😍

    … Sorry I’ll finish this up later on desktop, this is too fiddly on mobile 😅

    EDIT I’ve tried 3 times now to get this updated, and each and every time I’ve managed to swipe up by mistage in WefWef and lost the entire thing 😭 Will have to give it another try later, in another app 😔
