This is a classic board game that helps improve math and planning skills. Using dollar bills and property cards, players can buy, sell, and trade property as they go around the board. Students will need to add bills, make change and engage in a level of financial planning. Since luck is a great equalizer in this classic game, children and adults can play competitively together to see who can acquire the most properties and force their opponents into bankruptcy. Children that quickly lose interest in slow paced games may tire of this game before it really gets interesting, but the new rules provides options to speed up the game or players can agree to set a time limit or winning dollar amount. There are fun game pieces to choose from, colorful paper money, and a well-­designed board game to encourage players to purchase as much property as possible. The game does require more reading and math than typical games which can make it very educational but sometimes discouraging for younger players. Monopoly has withstood the test of time and is worth encouraging children to invest the effort.
