With the weather being as bad this summer as it currently is, which in itself is annoying after the weather forecasters once again forecasted a long hot summer, what are you doing to entertain your children in the school summer holidays?
There are a whole variety of games that you can play with your children and entertain them, whether you are sitting in your home or are stuck in a caravan somewhere, with the millions of other families that have upset the tour operators and are holidaying in this country!
Obviously, for those travelling somewhere games with lots of bits are not ideal. Monopoly might be an old favourite, but it can take so long to play a game it can be a trial in iteself.
We used to take a pack of cards and from that we could play loads of games, but if you want to take a boardgame that requires some thinking, instead of just luck, then backgammon can be a good choice.
Backgammon is more than luck. It requires planning and a bit of thought, both of which are excellent skills to be practising with your children to give them skills for the future. And if you really want to, you can win all of their pocket money back off them!
