The Ellen DeGeneres Show
What does FAMILY GAME NIGHT have in common with daytime television? Fun and laughter - and lots of it! The Ellen DeGeneres Show recently played their version of a Hasbro board game. Check it out now at ellentv.com!
Ladies' Home Journal Magazine
"Turn off the tube, shut down the computer -- and have a blast. A night of playing games is a great way for your whole crew to connect."
"We've made game night a must for extended-family get-togethers. My 11-year-old nephew is picking up Donald Trump tips from his Monopoly magnate uncle and my nieces, 10 and 4, are budding card whizzes. But I swear, I think it's the grown-ups who are having the best time of all."
San Francisco Chronicle
"The range and quality of board games out there today far surpass anything we may have grown up with as kids, and in spite of all the competing allures of online gaming, there is still something elementally satisfying about the roll of the dice and the click-clack of little wooden counters. Plus, in these tough economic times, can you really afford to go out anymore? Of course not -- which is where board games come in. One quick purchase amortizes nicely over many nights of brainy or brainless fun, as you prefer."
Family Fun Magazine
"Throw a winning game night with these family-tested favorites... YAHTZEE FREE FOR ALL... CRANIUM FAMILY EDITION... There'll be plenty of laughter, some learning, and hopefully, a little bit of luck!"
Indianapolis Star
Eric Martin, editor of boardgamenews.com said, "you learn a lot about people by the way they play a game."
Parenting: School Years Magazine
"Match skills falter in summertime because -- aside from practicing the times tables -- it can seem as if there's no natural way to keep them fresh. But many popular strategy games (like chess, checkers, MONOPOLY, BATTLESHIP, CLUE, and more) involve counting and subtracting, and working with money, as well as making predictions, seeing patterns, following rules, and using logic. In other words: match."
Newsweek Magazine
A featured report highlighted when "You regularly play puzzles like SCRABBLE or Sudoku" it can add as much as 5 years to your life expectancy!
