These days, kid’s pastimes can all too often revolve solely around electronic devices. It can be good to put the devices away from time to time and focus on some family bonding time. Board games are one of the best ways to engage in a …
We love games. All kinds of different games from playing cards to board games. I grew up having regular family game nights and now that I’m a parent to two children I’ve continued the tradition. It’s a great way for families to bond together and teaches children valuable life skills along the way.

Last week we played a fun new game called The Floor is Lava by Endless Games. It’s for ages 5 through 105 years of age and for 2-6 players. It gets children off their seat and onto their feet for some physical activity. Let’s face it, our children definitely need more of that. It can be played inside or outside.

It comes with the following: 1 game spinner, 25 colored foam safety stones, 1 instruction sheet, and 27 challenger cards.
Everyone has played a version of this game as a child, most likely jumping all over the furniture in their living room trying to stay off the dangerous floor. The Floor is Lava is a brand-new game where players must imagine the floor is molten hot lava, while spinning for their color and jumping along foam game pieces in order to reach safety. The Floor is Lava is a family game incorporating physical activity, imagination, and pure fun!
Everything you need to play is included inside the storage box. One of the nice things about this game is that you can easily take it along with you when you travel, visit grandma’s house, etc. It’s light-weight and doesn’t take up a lot of room. If you’re traveling it’s a great way to keep kids occupied with a physical activity indoors or out. Kids having a sleepover or birthday party? Perfect for that too.
I have two children ages 5-12 years of age and they love this game. I admit, I’ve enjoyed playing it with them too. They had their 4 cousins over last weekend ages 5 to 13 and all of the kids had a blast playing it. The concept and instructions are easy-to-understand. Plus, you can come up with your own play variations as you go along.
We played 3 games during the sleepover party and the kids kept coming back to The Floor is Lava to play over and over again. They loved it!!!

We’re a big gaming family. Almost weekly we sit down as a family to play games. The majority of the ones that we like to play are board games, but every once in awhile we’ll play cards. When selecting a game for family game night it’s important that the game be appropriate for all players. Double check the ages, the number of players needed and the time that will be involved when selecting games to play.

Our family recently had the opportunity to try out the new game REIGN The Final Battle Royal by PlayMonster. This game is for 2 to 4 players ages 8 and up and will take approximately 30-45 minutes to play. We really enjoy board games that don’t take hours to play. Let’s be realistic, we’re all busy these days and 45 minutes is perfect!

We set down as a family and read over all of the instructions. My almost 12 year old daughter understood game play right away but my almost 6 year old son needed help. I agree with their stipulated age requirements of ages 8 and over. It will take you approximately 10 minutes to read over the instructions and they’re easy to understand.
This game is unlike any other board game in our collection. It’s unique and fun to play. I believe that it will appeal to males and females alike. I’m 35 and I can honestly tell you that I enjoyed playing it with the kids, but I enjoyed it even more when a group of adults played it together (all age 30 to 41 years). The reason I bring that up is that I think it’s a nice game for family game night (with older children) or if you’re adults and regularly play games with other adults this would be a great new game to try.
