What’s your favorite family board game or card game that takes strategy and a bit of forethought?

I want to find one for my 9 year old for Christmas and, hopefully, create new family traditions.

His dad got him some dice games last Christmas, but he didn’t seem excited about it. He ended up giving it to one of his friends, and I felt like we let him down on a special day.

Perhaps something we can play together after dinner time. I’d really appreciate any help you can provide.

We bought our kids the children's version of monopoly and it has been such a great learning experience for them! We all get involved to make it fair and make our kids count all the money and we also make sure that we don't spare their feelings too much. Just because it's a game doesn't mean it should always be easy! It's a great way to set them up for the real world and start their money management skills.
