What to do with the kids when it rains on Holiday!!
It may not happen... certainly as I write this, it seems as if it may never rain again! Beautiful blue skies and soaring temperatures, but this is England and it will definitely rain and if you plan on holidaying somewhere in the UK with the kids, or even if you are at home, a board game that everyone can play and enjoy is a great way to spend a rainy afternoon or evening.
Here are three family games that got top reviews:
Pictureka
Easy to play, described as a visual game of hide and seek. Get 6 wins and you're the Pictureka champ. A picture hunting game for 2+ players. All ages from 6 years up.
This game has 17 great reviews on Amazon.co.uk The reviews say it is an excellent game for the whole family from young children ( 3 + to grandparents. Made by Hasbro £18.73 from Amazon.co.uk
Ingenious
This game is for the whole family but for slightly older children ( 8+) It is described as easy to learn and quick to play, it is a strategy game that you will want to play over and over again.1-4 players Ages 8+

Tension- the Zany Crazy Naming Game
This game got 18 really good reviews. Is for the whole family and again for slightly older children ( 12+) The reviewers say it can be played by individuals or in teams --so it is good for large groups as well as just the family. Each player has to shout out as many examples as they can to random topics on the card they pick. The topics are very diverse "Famous Bald People " or "Things that are yellow" but the only answers that count are those matching a list of ten on the card. Fast furious Fun!
