Win family board games

Board games and family time go hand in hand and we’ve got just the list for you and your family to run through this Easter! Whether it’s for youngsters, tweens, teens or adults, this list covers them all. Here are our top 5 board games for Easter. P.S. Scroll down to see how you can win them all! 

5 Second Rule Travel Edition

You might consider it easy to name three South African foods that start with the letter B, but doing it under the pressure of five seconds might just throw you off. The South African version of 5 Second Rule (from R199) is a game fit for the whole family and a great option to take with you on holiday. The original game – as seen on The Ellen Show – is a global phenomenon with various interesting questions, but now it has a South African flavour that will have you spit out correct, but also daring and hilarious answers. The game’s travel edition is perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon or to enjoy during a games night with friends.

Spot It

This recognition game now also comes in a South African version (R285) which makes for lots of fun and laughter. You might have come across it in Europe, where they’ve dubbed it Dobble, but apart from slight differences it’s pretty much the same game.

Bananagrams

Bananagrams board game

Bananagrams (from R285) comes in a banana-shaped bag filled with letters and it is perfect for a family with young children who are learning to read. The word building game is packaged small enough to throw in a bag or to keep in the back of the car to keep kids amused and entertained while travelling. It’s addictively simple and simply addictive, requires no pencil, paper or board and is the perfect on-the-go game for families on holiday. 

Ticket to Ride

This game is a nostalgic travel game ideal for the whole family to play. Playing Ticket to Ride (R950) will not only make you think, but it will also give you some geographic knowledge and in addition to that, it will certainly spark some wanderlust. The game is easy to learn and appeals to both families and experienced gamers.

EXIT

Ideally for teens and adults, this family board game (R350) is an escape room game where everything you need is in the box. It comes in different versions for different ages and players are required to solve riddles and puzzles and crack codes to escape from an imaginary room or environment. It’s the perfect game to encourage teamwork and each game can only be played once since you must mark up, fold and tear the game materials to crack the codes.

WIN, WIN, WIN!

One lucky reader can win a board game hamper filled with all five these games, courtesy of Solarpop! While it might not be in time for Easter, it might just come in handy over the December holidays or any other family holiday for that matter.
