Family Games in Spanish Your Kids Will Love

Family Games in Spanish Your Kids Will Love -

My kids are now 12 and 6 and it is becoming increasingly difficult to speak Spanish at home. I constantly have to say to them “en Español” sad emoji here. And I’ll be honest, I haven’t been the best at being consistent. My entire world is pretty much in English so it isn’t easy. Since we have been trying to do less screen time and more family time WITHOUT screens, here are some family games in Spanish we’ve been playing lately.

**All of the suggestions below are games we play at home, try them and let me know how you like them!

Wiht the holiday season around the corner, add some of these under the Christmas tree, for Hanukkah or for birthdays as a way to get your kids playing games in Spanish!
