My tween can occupy herself for quite a while with the IQ Fit. Look it up if you don't know it!

Thank you! Is that like Kanoodle? I had seen it and was contemplating it.
Would you be able to link the IQ Fit version that you are referring to?
I'd really like to buy 2-3 new independent games. Thanks again!

Yes, I haven't heard of Kanoodle before, but looked it up now and it looks exactly the same.

Someone just told me about Genius Star yesterday but it's out of my budget.
Izzi is a big hit here.
We have kanoodle and rush hour and the like but izzi is very different and I think my older ones gravitate toward that more than the others.
We also seem to notice solitaire chess being chosen by that age range in my house.

Thanks!
While we're at it, we need some replacement tiles for rummikub. Does it make sense to just buy a new set? I found that individual replacement tiles are priced at around $6 each, and I need 4 specific ones.

I got a cheap set around $3 at a thrift store. Low risk if you don't need the full set anyway.

I just wanted to thank everyone for such great suggestions!
Dd spent hours on Izzi (thank you for the EBay link- we used it to purchase the new sealed game), and a magnetic marble maze from National Geographic! (Your suggestions to gravity maze led use to this winner- which gets played on the kitchen refrigerator/freezer or another magnetic surface).
Gmar Tov!
