Benefits of Family Game Night

Family Game Night has been popular for a long time. It is a great way to connect with your family after long days and weeks. There are times to be passive with our entertainment by watching a movie but I have noticed that the active interactions after a busy day are more fulfilling. It can be exhausting to bring out a game and play referee with young children but it is worth it.

Our children look forward to playing games with us and their siblings. We love the conversations that happen around board games. The skills we are all learning and foundations we are setting that interactions with people are more important than media.
