Educational Board Games to encourage speaking your minority language
We love interesting board games in our home - it brings the family together, and we can simply enjoy some quality time around the dinner table. We recently talked about Bandido here.
One thing I additionally like about board games and card games is their practicality in combining language awareness with fun activities. Learning doesn’t need to be gruelling or overly structured with worksheet all the time. Our “language favourites” that are useful for preschool age are the following. I’ve picked our top-most game per language.
German Board Game
Sprechdachs
There are game rules attached, and you can make up your own game and matching activities.
English Puzzle Game
Seek & Play Puzzle “Huckle’s House”
From the Busytown family: Puzzling and Matching cards for specific questions. Highly entertaining and educational.
Portuguese Card Game
Taco Gato Cabra Queijo Pizza
A quick game to shout the names for the cards.
Let me know what you are playing, I’d love to add to our list!
