I remember sitting around playing games with my family when I was young. We used to get snowed in and out came the games. The one we played the most was Monopoly. To this day, I still love the game. Not so much playing it but I love the board and pieces!
Monopoly has been around since the early 1900's. Comes is a ton of versions. You can find one for your state or area, schools, banks etc.
Here is a slide show of different versions:

I don't even want to think about all the Monopoly items I have!
A watch:
A cross stitched board:
Towels, mugs, sigh... Too many items and probably a bunch I've forgotten I have!
Another game I used to play with was Mouse Trap! Do you remember that one? Do you have favorite games you play with your family?
Have a great day!
