Our Favorite Preschool Board Games

 
Our Favorite Preschool Board Games  2023

This year we have a 3 year old grandson - who turned 4 at the end of the year.  Our family jokes that him and I share an attention span - so our board games need to be...  concise.  :-)

These were the games him and I liked best this year - in addition to floor puzzles.  He really loves large floor puzzles!

Stephen Joseph Lil' Builder Game

This is my personal favorite right now.  Unfortunately, I don't think they make it anymore?  I did find it on a few websites... and there are some outrageously prices copies on Ebay.  This might be something you could make your own version of, with any set of blocks...

It's a set of blocks, and a set of cards showing things to build.  We have just been building what is on the cards, but eventually we'll play it as intended: lay the cards out in a grid, face down.  When it's your turn, you flip the card, look at it for a period of time, then place it face down and built it from memory.

There's a Christmas set, much smaller, by the same company:

Cooties!

It's a classic for a reason.  Spin to see what part you get, try to be the first to built your cootie

Dr Seuss I Can Do That

This is an older game I found at our local thrift store.  It reminds me of  preschool version of Quelf - a favorite when our kids were teenagers.  You flip over 3 cards, and do what the cards tell you to do...  so it may be something like tiptoe to the bathroom with the cake under your arm, or slide under the trickamastick with the doll on your head...
