What are educational board games?
-
All games provide some level of education as PLAY is one of the 3 ways kids learn. Whether it is specific academic content (math, reading, geography, history), or executive thinking (planning, decision-making, spatial reasoning, communication) there is always an opportunity to learn with the problem-solving and strategy skills used in game play.
-
At SimplyFun, we use games to share educational content to specifically build academic knowledge as well as executive functioning life skills that families and teachers can use to bring fun and engagement into the learning process. We have uniquely crafted family board games that include popular styles of game play like word, math and logic games to resource-management and strategy. Our games have won numerous educational and parenting awards, but more importantly the approval of kids and parents that experience SimplyFun game play.
