    Good family board game

    Hi
    Looking to buy my cousin and her family a board game for Christmas. She has 5 kids (doesn't live here but in Ireland in countryside). Kids are aged 10 boy, 9 boy, 7 girl, 5 boy and 3 boy. What would be good board game that will suit all the ages. While I don't see them that often they are good kids and play well together (well most of the time lol).

    Any suggestions gratefully received.

    TIA

    With such a varied age group it will be really hard to find one that will suit everyone...

    My best suggestions would be your "traditional" games like Twister or Operation.

    have you seen the game called Doggie Doo? Its a game for the kids more then a "family"game but I have kids the same ages (same gender sequence also) & I know when they get it it will be non stop laughter.

    My just turned 4 yr old's speech therapist has it & Iain was in fits of laughter as was I when I seen it. My 8 yr old was with us also & he had a smile ear to ear. I mean who can't not laugh at it. Go google/you tube it. Its in Kmart for about $25.

    Might not be everyones cup of tea though.
