Kids are 9 and 6:

My personal favorites: Clue and Spy Alley

They love Monopoly and Payday.

My nine year old asked for Stratego and Parcheesi for Christmas.

Not really a board game, but a game of strategy that my kids love:

Kids are almost 4 and 5.

Sleeping Queens - huge hit. They need a little help playing (requires basic math skills) but fun for everyone.

Sequence Letters - 5 year old loves this game
