And what are the rules?
We've gone beyond Uno but don't have a game that we all 4 play together.
Thanks

Sting, Exploding kittens, Shithead, Hearts, 7's.

Skyjo, exploding kittens, throw throw burrito, kids against maturity.

Martyjake · 05/06/2025 21:50

Sevens, rummy, trumps.
if you like rummy there a game called rummicub that’s great, but it’s not a card game

Shit Head/Bollocks

DS1 taught me 'Poohead' (bless the days he didn't want to swear in the house). But we've since forgotten how to play.

Our favourite is Predict Whist
Capitalism for a big group
Pistachio
Hearts (forgotten rules)
Poker

We still love uno and exploding kittens

IReallyLoveItHere · 05/06/2025 22:06

Have you tried no other versions of Uno? No Mercy is brutal!

We play proper card games mainly.

11 year old grandchild's current favourite is Monopoly deal.

Whist.

And every time we go on holiday we buy a new deck of cards with the place we are staying in on the back of the cards and they go everywhere with us - waiting to eat, stopping for a hot chocolate, at the airport. We just get the cards out. Kids also get a deck of cards in their Christmas stockings, themed on their current interests. I was beside myself with excitement to find an Iliad themed deck for Classics-loving DD.

We do also love Rummikub, but whist is the first love in our household. My kids card-count.

MichelleCancelled · 05/06/2025 22:17

With a deck of cards
Knock out whist
Chace the ace
Old Maid

Others
Uno
Mind the gap

I've also taught them solitaire, clock solitaire, 11's and pairs so they can play on their own.

SayItLikeItIsLetsKeepItReal · 05/06/2025 22:18

Yahtzee and Monopoly Deal 👌🏻

SquigglePigs · 05/06/2025 22:25

There are more exotic versions of Uno like Uno Flip that are quite fun.

Skyjo is excellent. Dobble is pretty fun.

Not card games but we also enjoy Rummikub, Chain Chess, Scrabble, Junior Cluedo and Labyrinth.

Depends on the ages of the kids really.

pambeesleyhalpert · 05/06/2025 22:25

Phase 10- from the makers of UNO, it’s fantastic. Monopoly deal
