Best board games or card games that are fun for parents, too

[Anonymous]

Please share your family favorites, classic or new, and the kids ages!

I don't have many yet, but I'll start:

Uno - love that it's portable, we sometimes play with regular playing cards

Roads, rivers, bridges - at 4 - 5 years old we just played with the patterns, now with 6y.o.+ we can do more of the rules

Chinese checkers - starting around 7 or 8

Dominoes - littlest ones just play with the tiles, older ones follow rules but also enjoy stacking and building

Sleeping Queens for sure. My teenage nieces and nephews also like it. For slightly older kids we like Bananagrams.
