World Football Stars Monopoly
Harry, 7, says: “Lots of my favourite footb all players are in the game!’’
Harry, who is nearly eight, enlisted the help of older brother Sam to play this game. Mum Sarah says: “The game is a great modern version of the original version I used to play as a child. It’s something we can all play as a family because it’s suitable for all ages from eight up. “Harry loved the football theme, as it has lots of recognisable players - many of them his favourites. “On first impressions, it was really easy to set up and the rules are easy to understand. Plus it is very appealing to children who love football, so goes down well in my house full of boys! They don’t always want to play board games, but the combination of familiar gameplay and the footie theme made it far more appealing. “Instead of Leicester Square and Park Lane, each square belongs to a famous footballer - such as Mo Salah or Harry Kane. Train stations are replaced by football stadia, including Wembley. And instead of the top hat, car and ship, there are football tokens including a mini goal, ref’s whistle and trophy. “This is definitely a game that Harry - and we - can play over and over again!’’

Top Trumps
Five-year-old Albie is already a big football fan, just like his dad Paul, so this footie-themed Top Trumps card game was a big hit. Paul says: “I loved playing Top Trumps as a kid - but we never had a football one - I’d have loved that! So it was lovely to play a game with Albie, so we could share something from my childhood. “There’s 30 cards in the set including big names such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Luis Suárez and many more. “It’s interesting to find out stats about them - how many caps they’ve earned, how many goals they’ve scored and so on. “The great thing about Top Trumps is there’s plenty of reading and maths going on while you’re playing, so it’s a win-win!''
Dad Paul says: “It was nice to play this with Albie - Top Trumps is a game I played as a kid’’
World Football Stars Top Trumps Match Board Game Young Albie also played this matching game from the Top Trumps stable - and even challenged his dad to a game.
Mum Kelly explains: “The idea behind the game is to match five of the footballers in a row - either horizontally, vertically or diagonally by slotting the cubes into the playing screen. “But it’s not that simple - because if your opponent turns over the Top Trump card, they could take your Albie, 5, says match and win the game.
