With the weather a little unpredictable at the moment, I thought it might be a good idea to share your favourite games to play in your caravan or motorhome. Our firm family favourite has to be Dobble. It's lightweight so easy to take away with you. We still love some of the classics though! What do you recommend and why?

The only little game we have in our MH is this

Great bit of fun, quite strategic with two adults playing, but children should enjoy it. Helpful with a bit of geographic knowledge as well. All fits inside a 6 inch tin, weighs about 4 ounces.😁 We sometimes play best of three, as a game flows quickly.

We always have books, crafts onboard, and being pooch owners, you just get out there and dress for the weather. We do indoor site seeing if it’s very wet. Probably still got a Monopoly somewhere in caravan🤔

Another lightweight game is Mousey Mousey. Best with lots of players, a good one with children, be prepared for plenty of noise and endless laughs. You have to watch your fingers though🤣 Good for having to concentrate and tests reflexes.

I do have some games stored in the van, a set of boules, a portable chess set, UNO, Connect 4 and a pack of playing cards but they only come out when the youngest grandchild is around. We are more into amusing outselves by other means, music, TV and a favourite of mine Freecell.

I like dominoes, cards and backgammon. We have a travel backgammon set somewhere. 

I suppose it’s a lot different with children along, something we have rarely experienced. We had good times with our best friends and their lovely daughter as a little one. She looks after us now🤣 My inner child usually emerges on a beach. I love to make a mermaid and decorate it with seaweed and seashells. If it’s warm enough, swimming in the rain is lovely as well, but you soon get cold when you get out of sea🥶
