Summer is our season!

I absolutely live for summer! The sun, the heat, the grill outs, and of course, the YARD GAMES!

Truly, there are few things we love more than having a party outside and getting to play a few games with our friends on the lawn. 

Yard games have been a summer element in both our childhoods and now, much like our board game collection, they fill our garage! On any given night in the summer you can find us outside playing one of these, whether its a friendly game of Badminton or a wild game of yard darts! 

So if you’re looking for a fun way to spend these sunny days, then grab one of these amazing yard games, call up your friends, and get ready for a fun time!

With Father’s Day around the corner, I wanted to compile a fun list filled with games that my own father loves to play! 

My dad comes from a family of Canasta players. I grew up watching and learning how to play cards from my parents and extended family and it created some of my most favorite memories from my childhood. Nearly every gathering always involved a card game of some sort which for sure meant whoops, hollers, and playful banter. Playing so much cards growing up is a main reason why we play boardgames now. 

Board games have been such a fun hobby to share with my family, who are always up to try any game we bring, especially my dad!

So for this post, I asked him to tell me which ones have been his favorites!

I don’t know about you, but all of my kids (and me!) LOVE dinosaurs.

We’ve been neck deep in dinosaur facts for about 6 years, fielding every question our kids can throw at us and leaning into the obsession. Honestly, by this point I practically have a degree in Paleontology.
