Social Skills Blog #4 Board Games

During the past few weeks, we have been talking about social and play skills from sharing and turn-taking to waiting for items and attention. All these areas we have gone over have significant importance during childhood.

To help give opportunities to build on social and play skills as well as add some fun games to your pile of board games, I have compiled a list of games suggestions from 2 player, to multiplayer, too cooperative games.

2 player and multiplayer games

  • Zingo

  • Pop the Pig

  • Gobblet Gobblers

  • Stack Up

  • Hoot Owl Hoot

  • Outfoxed

  • Shopping List

  • Pengoloo

  • Feed the Woozle

  • Hi Ho Cheery-o

Cooperative Games

  • Peaceable Kingdom Race to the Treasure!

  • Count your Chickens

  • Silly Street

  • Friends and Neighbors

  • Snug as a Bug in a Rug

  • Outfoxed and Hoot Owl Hoot

Playing games can become such a fun aspect of family time! Playing games will help to build on those turn-taking skills, as well as building compliance, and social and play skills. With this short list, I hope you find a game or two you can add to your game pile and enjoy some fun family time.
