Our Picks: Best Board Games for Girls
Wondering what the best board games for girls are to keep them entertained throughout the year, or thinking of a perfect gift for a loved one? With so many options for board games for girls out there, we have organized our favorite board games for girls of all ages below.
Any game that teaches strategy and decision making is excellent for girls.

So, this top board games for girls list will be a mix of games that teach us things as well as games that don’t teach us anything but are good-old wholesome family fun.
I will admit that once girls get a little older (8+), the options become a lot wider (girls 8+ can play almost any board game except adult party games, but note there is a kids version of Cards Against Humanity). But there are still is a bit of choice for board games for girls age around 4-8 as I will discuss below. In that regard, I will be listing the best board games for girls age 3+, then 4+, 5+, 6+, 7+, 8+ and teens.
I have girls, and my wife was a girl not so long ago, so we are a pretty good authority on this kind of stuff! You can trust us.
