I am looking to buy some more board/card games for 9-11 year olds to keep my kids occupied over Yom Tov

We already have:

monopoly
stratego
trouble
battleship
rummikub
uno
slamwich
sorry
blink
mancala
payday

Any suggestions?

TIA

thanks for the suggestions. perpetual commotion I forgot to mention, we have that too, but my kids don't play with it that much, only dd plays it with her friends.


I want to take something along to IL's for first days, MIL doesn't have the best toys.


any more suggestions? keep 'em coming......

Bananagrams is HUGE with my 10 yr old and her friends. We also find that a deck of cards can entertain for a while.

Cranium (the non-muktsa parts) is good. Apples to Apples

There's a great game called 10 days in the USA which is a little for the upper age limit there, but my 7 year olds have figured out how to play and my 10 year old loves it. it actually takes them a while to play (not as long as monopoly though).

Even the more "basic" games like Sorry and Trouble when played with siblings or cousins can be fun depending on the kids.
