Games and Puzzles


November 24th-30th 

National Game & Puzzle Week is an annual American event, celebrated Sunday through Saturday of Thanksgiving Week.
The purpose of this event is to increase appreciation of board games and puzzles and to revive the tradition of playing games together at home. Studies show that once families rediscover how much fun a good game night can be, it often becomes a new routine. Recent studies show that most moms would love to see their families spend more time together enjoying each other's company and this is a great way to get started. 

As an added benefit, puzzles are good for your brain. So have fun getting smarter while playing games and working puzzles this year!
