Game Like a Mother

Doesn't the name say it? It's a great trivia game that is tiered for different age levels. Great fun for campers young and old!

You're supposed to play speed games at camp, at least that's what I always did. This is a great speed game, perfect for young campers.

Cute memory game meets terrifying Native American legend. This game is our most played memory game. I like that it has more strategy than a typical memory game.

It's a more strategic, quicker spin-off of Yahtzee. The poker chips you play with are fancy fun and the game is self contained with a felt board which means the constant rolling of the dice won't make you go crazy. Whoever designed this game is a genius. 

Your more strategic, much faster version of traditional Monopoly. It's just a small deck of cards so it's very portable and easy to play in a tent. 

Roll your pigs, try to reach 100 points first without a "Pig Out!" Pictured is the Big Pigs Edition, I recommend the original small version for camping. I used to play this on Middle School camping trips, it is a game that appeals to all ages. 

It needs to be pitch black for this game to work well and you need a flat surface for the board but the effort is well worth it for this game that has a serious cool factor. It's like freeze tag in the dark, board game style.

One of the best dice games out there. Simple to learn but there are so many available strategies to use as you attempt to master this game. 

Gaze deeply into your fellow campers eyes and read their mind as you play a series of cards in order with no talking or communication of any kind! It's been a surprise hit, it's available at Target so you know it's trendy cool.

Particularly if you have a larger group, this is a great game to play while camping. There are a number of roles to play in your quest to figure out who the werewolf is hiding in your midst!
