Best board games for 5 year old similar to Monopoly?

[EnterHere]

He will be 5.5 at Christmas time. Loves numbers and counting.
Likes Monopoly Junior.
Hates loud noises so things like operation where it buzzes are out.

Can anyone recommend other games?
We've had kerplunk and gooey Louie which he wasn't keen on so thinking more Monopoly-like.

Thanks

Junior cluedo and junior Scrabble?

Monopoly junior is my 6 year old’s absolute favourite. She also likes uno, kids of carcassone, Marrakesh, game of life, mind the gap, orchard toys pop to the shops, and various pairs/matching games

I should add we have junior scrabble and lots of orchard games.

Junior cluedo sounds good though. Thanks

Junior Labyrinth
Junior game of life
Risk Junior
My First Ticket to Ride
Catan Junior

Not a board game but frustration, uno and pass the pigs are all hits in our house.

What about playing card games?

My 2 love junior monopoly, uno and dobble.
Have you looked at Junior game of life, guess who, mouse trap?
Orchard toys do some good ones too.

Jaipur
Rummikub

Mime love cludeo junior and game of life!

As previously mentioned,
junior Ticket to ride is fantastic, as is My First Carcassonne. And actually enjoyable to play as an adult.

Not exactly like Monopoly but these board games are perfect for 5 year olds:
The Enchantred Tower (the most beautiful board game for kids)
Spinderella
Dragomino
Kingdomino
Ticket to Ride junior
The Magic Labyrinth

For numbers..shut the box , magic maths, uno, cafe money match and pop to the shops.
There's also Mammoth maths but we found that a bit boring.
I always have 3 dice in my bag for times of quiet waiting, good for simple numbers and adding and subtracting .

Also Outfoxed, Guess in 10, Junior cluedo .

Connect 4? Snakes and ladders and the gruffalo deep dark woods game are popular with my 5 year old. We also play snap, uno-type games and dobble.

Labyrinth (don't know if they do a junior version?)
Hotel has Monopoly/Game of life vibes and is a real favourite in this house.

My son loved 3D Snakes and Ladders at that age...

Also colour-dot dominoes were popular.

Have you looked at one of these

Sorry posted too soon! One of those sets that are 10 games in one?

He might also enjoy card games if he likes numbers.

Sleeping queens

Another vote for Catan junior, which is actually fun for adults too.

We are huge fans of monopoly builder in our house. My son got it for Christmas last year and we much prefer it to actual monopoly!

Junior rummikub perfect for those who like numbers

And you can't go wrong with Uno

Not an academic game by any means but we like Kersplat!

Not numbers based but Ravensburger Funny Bunny is good for that age, currently 60% off £7.99 on Amazon. Still have to count onwards to move.

Monopoly Deal card game too, but it might be a little bit old for him yet.
