Family Game Night Just Got Even More Fun Thanks To Goliath Games @GoliathGamesUS #GoliathGames

The weather outside may be frightful staying inside is easy because  Family Game Night just got even more fun thanks to Goliath Games.

In this fast-paced era of technology, sometimes it feels as though it gets harder and harder to just sit down and have family time but thanks to companies such as Goliath Games, a funfilled night of laughter and good old-fashioned family fun is as close as your game closet-that is if you’ve stocked your game cabinet is filled with the great selection of games for kids of all ages.

As a mom, grandma and educator I know how important it is to carve out time each week to just sit down and be a family and there’s no better way to do it than with Family Game Night.  Playing games together is the perfect way to connect with your child and open the doors to casual conversations, laughter, and fun. 

Playing games together give students the perfect venue to practice those all-important math and critical thinking skills without them ever knowing that they’re going it but most importantly, it allows you to create ever-lasting memories that will last long after the game is put back into the box. My greatest memories of my children’s childhood were sitting around playing the classics board games with my kids and now that tradition has been handed down to the next generation. And let’s face it, is there anything better than the sweet sounds of a child’s laughter when they bring their game piece home as you hit another “skip a turn square”?  It is the sound of that laughter and silliness that will stay in your heart long after the night is over and that you will remember in the years to come.

Thanks to our friends at Goliath Games, we got to try out a wide variety of the very best in the latest incarnation of today’s board games and the girls could not have been more thrilled. From such classics as “Wordsearch” to “Hydro Strike” and the fun of “Pikmi Pops”, there is nothing better than seeing the eyes of a child light up not just from the game, but more because they have your undivided attention.  Here’s a look at just a few of the games we were lucky enough to test out:

Wordsearch 

The race is on with this exciting version of the classic hidden word puzzle – it turns a solitary activity into a fun group word game as players go on a word search. Rotate the specially-designed circular board to reveal the word that the players will race to find on this turn. Everyone plays at once, and the first player to locate the word marks it with transparent colored tiles. With twists and turns that allow players to remove tiles played by competitors, Wordsearchers find that it’s a great game for kids and families to play together (and to boggle their minds!). The player with the most tiles on the board at the end wins. For 2-4 players, ages 7 and up. And now you can Create your own custom Wordsearch cards with the online Puzzle Generator. It’s super quick and easy! Visit http://www.wordsearch.eu and enter up to 20 of your own unique words to generate a customized puzzle board; then download and print. The word combinations are endless! Create hours of fun for the whole family with the Wordsearch Puzzle Generator.

Hydro Strike

Get ready to make a splash with Hydro Strike! In this head-to-head pinball game, you’ll need fast flipping fingers to shoot the ball into your opponent’s goal.  Score and your opponent will get sprayed in the face with water!

Since a sprayer is aimed at both players, strike quick when you play, or you’ll get the spray! The first player to score 5 times wins.  Will you win or get wet?  For 2 players, ages 7 and up.

PikmiPops

Pikmi Pops are sweet-scented and full of surprises! Help the Pikmi Pops fill their Pikmi trees with lots of lollipops! To earn a lollipop, you may need to dance, sing, or even tell a story. Some special places on the board will unlock surprises! Be the first player to collect four different lollipops to fill your Pikmi tree to win! The game includes one exclusive sweet-scented Pikmi plush. For 2 to 4 players, ages 5 and up.

 Pop ‘N Race Game

This well-known board game brings the Pikmi Pops to life! Players pop the dome to roll the die and move their playing pieces around the board. When they land on another player’s piece, that player is in trouble and must move their playing piece back to Start. The first player to get all four playing pieces from Start to Home wins the game! For 2-4 players, ages 5 and up.
