    What was your favorite board game as a child, and what is your favorite now?

    When I was a kid, I loved candyland. Now I like the game Apples to Apples. It's so much fun!

    I used to love playing "Monopoly".

    There was also this other game which I am forgetting. It was similar to Monopoly, but I used to have a lot of fun with it as a kid.

    I have to go with Monopoly, too. I had a large family and this was always the game we played together. When my kids were in their teens, we got one called Dogopoly. It was based on Monoploy but used dogs instead. It was a lot of fun to play Dogopoly with my kids.

    I liked Monopoly with one of my friends. She would spend the night and we'd play all night, and then a few weeks later, she'd stay over again and we'd pick up right back where we left off. We'd write down who had which properties, how many houses, total money, etc, so a single game might go on for months.

    With family or other people, I liked playing Life. I'd play it by myself sometimes, too, haha.

    When I was a kid, Snakes and Ladders was my favorite game when I was little.
    Now, I enjoy playing dominoes with my family (although not really a board game).
    Apples to Apples was a fun game. I played it once in 6th grade, haha.

    When I was younger I loved Sorry. I used to play Sorry tournaments with my dad. We still laugh about that. I also loved to play Monopoly and Pay Day. I still like all of those games, but now that I am older Scrabble is my favorite.

    My favorite board game was checkers. Does that count? I love to play checkers. I also loved Chinese checkers. Some of my other favorites were Sorry and I think the name is Battleship.
    As an adult, I mostly play Backgammon. Monopoly is a family favorite, but I do play with them. My sister cheats at Monopoly. She is really cutthroat. :(

    I always liked Sorry and Clue. We enjoy Cranium now if we have a few people over.

    I do not think I had just one favorite. I loved Candyland, shoots and ladders, operation, and so many more! I would play games with my grandmother every night before I would go to bed.

    I do not really get to play board games anymore. urgently I am teaching my 5 year old how to play Checkers, and Candyland will be the next one she is introduced to. My personal favorite now is Scrabble.

    When I was a kid I really loved playing snakes and ladders! It is so fun and exciting. Now of coarse I find that game boring and I don;t play it anymore. I play more chess but of coarse I don't really have much time. Sometimes chess is a good exercise for the mind but when you have so much things in mind, you just can't play it.

    Monopoly was my favorite board game as a kid, but no one wanted to play with me because I cheat. Besides that I really like that game, and I try to play by the rules since I grew up. I could play that game for hours, and it kept my brothers and sisters quiet. Board games were cool until I discovered video games. That took fun to a whole new level.

    As a kid, I loved Monopoly. I found it exciting and very fun. I never really did like Scrabble because it requires more effort. haha I left that with my smarter siblings.

    I also loved Monopoly. It was exciting because you get to do so many things. I also liked snakes and ladders, but it can be boring after some time because it's just practically a race to finish game.

    I still love these timeless and classic board games: Chutes and Ladders, The Game of Life, Clue, Trivial Pursuit, Scrabble, Nightmare, and many more... I loved them when I was younger and still play them today. We did own a D&D board game, but I never really got into it although I did love the little figurines that came in the box. I've seen the Apples to Apples game and read a little bit about how it's played. I'd like to give it a try one day. Sounds like fun!
