Bringing Family Together

9/1/2020

 
Four people sit in separate rooms. Their eyes are glued to screens. Dad is on his desk top, mom on her laptop, Billy on his tablet, and Sarah on her phone. There is no communication between them and no human interaction. This is a typical scene from the world we live in.

How do we break this unhealthy situation? One possible answer is through “board games”.

Board games are a great way to get family members off their devices and promote interaction with other human beings! Here are just a few ways board games accomplish this:

  1. Board games get people out of their separate rooms and bring them together around the same table.
  2. Board games help focus our attention away from screens. It’s kind of hard to be looking at your phone when you’re immersed in a board game…you’ll be too busy planning your next move and path to victory!
  3. Board games encourage communication with others. Players will find themselves actually “talking” with their opponents (or team mates). You’ll be pleasantly surprised how often smiles will occur, and how a bit of laughter might even erupt!
 
So, why not break out a board game today and bring the family closer together!
