So here's the delema, we have gets from age 6 to age 17, we'd like to have a family game night, but what game can we all play and have fun? Monoply? Love the game, but for a lot time our youngest had to be on someone elses "team" in order to play. Candyland. Another great game, but the older guys aren't into it anymore. Scrabble. Yes, another classic game, but the younger ones still have a hard time spelling competetive words. Life, one of my most favroites, but again, a bit too old for the youngest.

So what does a family play?

Qwirkle.

We love this game! We got it about the end of the year in 2014. And we play it every chance we get! The concept, take the tiles marked by 6 shapes in 6 colors and arrange them in various rows so that either the 6 different shapes in one matching color, or 6 matching shapes in all 6 different colors. You get 1 point per tile with 12 points when you complete a Qwirkle; a row of 6. Sound a little complicated? It's not.

This game is super easy to play! No math or reading skills, just simple matching. Perfect for little ones. For the older guys, endless strategic possibilies make a game that is always changing. it really is a great game for the whole family to play!

This past Tuesday, we sat down again for a little Qwirkle and had a great time playing together as a family.

If you're looking for a game that the whole family can play, we highly recommend, Qwirkle! We have provided a link for you to pick up your own Qwirkle game via Amazon! We love Amazon! With Amazon Prime, you get fast, 2 day delivery for free! And Amazon can still be a little cheaper depending on what you're ordering than the other stores. Safe. Secure. And to your door. Can't beat that. Plus, when you order items that we recommend using the links we provide, it helps to keep www.TheHighamFamily.com on line through our affiliate  partnership! So, thanks!

And have fun playing Qwirkle!

Hey jay and Amy- love your blog! I am going to order Quirkle!
Question for you... As we now have teens in our home conversations surround us with adults on sex before marriage and how it's crazy (weare told) that telling kids to wait without handing them protection is stupid especially boys. Tough topic, but I would love to hear from you guys on this because you have four boys and are in the ministry too.
