Some I play with my 6yo often are : Rat a Tat Cat, Stratego, The Magic Labyrinth, Slamwich.

That list is great, we have a handful of the ones she mentioned. The gameschool community on FB is really great for ideas and Ive also started checking thrift stores for games! Ive scored some good deals.

yes, Monopoly Deal. so far he has won every round. of course we help him a bit but once he catches on he'll be brutal. I'll check out the fb group.

Rat-a-Tat-Cat
Timeline (History) and Cardline (Animals)
Outfoxed
Zooloretto
Castle Panic
Forbidden Island
Catan Dice

thanks. i'll have to check out Catan further. even if not for him, i think i'd like it.
