Game Board Party Night
Change One-tracked Poker Nights into All-around Game Parties
Poker night is an addicting game and a good reason to get together with friends and family; but the game is more of an adult game that younger ones will not be eligible to join in on the fun. Making get-togethers more flexible by adding game options or changing into activities like other game boards meant for both adults and children is a way to have an all-around game party.
There are different board games that involve strategy and logic enjoyed by all ages, and hosting a party of games is a good way to keep friends and families close to one another and learn a little more about each other. With the right combination of games, you can transform your venue into a non-gambling casino in no time.
1. Backgammon: This game can serve as a warm up in the party for the approach is slow and you will not figure out who is winning until the 3/4th part of the game. Since this Turkish game is one-on-one, having around three or four cases can be good for guests who want a less-stressful challenge. Backgammon can also be played by any age that a kindergartener can skillfully play against a 70-year old man.
2. Trivial Pursuit: For the brainy guests, Trivial Pursuit is a good exercise to test knowledge against each other. Nowadays, you can get different versions which made the game suitable for different areas of knowledge and ages.
3. Scrabble: Scrabble can be a good way to enhance vocabulary; pairing adults with children can give way for passing on information and knowledge from adult to kid. A game of Scrabble makes spelling, strategy, and learning fun and easy.
4. Monopoly: For guests with entrepreneurial spirits, Monopoly is the ultimate game where you can learn the basics in money investment and real estate. Younger guests can also enjoy spending and losing money and somehow see a different view in handling and managing their allowances.
5. Taboo: This new game is another brain-exercising activity that tests you on general pop knowledge. Teenagers and young adults will most likely fit into this game for most of the items come from their generation.
6. Pictionary: For the visually-inclined, Pictionary can exercise creativity in expressing words through actions. With bigger groups divided into two, the whole crowd of your party can join in on the action-guessing game. Pictionary can be the last game on the menu since the setting is a fun way to bond by doing and saying silly stuff to one another.
Scheduling weekly nighttime game parties helps guests loosen up from their stressful daily activities. You can keep this habit going by making your venue’s ambiance more conducive for playing through printing print posters with mob-type, casino style, or mug shot designs to taunt losers, instill challengers, and recognize all-time winners. You can also build a Hall of Fame fun wall and post cards with postcards of regular and special guest players.
