My daughters and I have been playing a lot of board games together lately. We have always been a family that loves to play board games. With it being summer and we can’t get to some places this year because of what’s all been going on around the world, we love to turn to games. It’s something we have been doing for years. There are so many wonderful games to play out there too. One of our recent favorites, are from OjO Games.

Shape Factory
Players must work together while one builds an image out of shapes and the other tries to guess what it is. Guess correctly and together move along the production line towards the finish line. Build spatial awareness, imagination and collaboration skills.
Shape Factory is a lot of fun for us because you get to make different things out of shapes. While you’re making something with the shapes, everyone else gets to try to guess what you’re making. It’s been so much fun trying to guess what everyone is trying to make. We could even make some of your own things out of the shapes. We’ve done things similar to this before, but we love that this is made into a game. It’s more fun this way.
Movie Director
Direct your own mini-movies and solve maths problems at the same time. The Movie Director Educational Board Game offers a new way to build maths skills, problem solving and imagination, all while having fun with family and classmates!
In the movie director game, you get to be the director! This was one tons of fun since you got to be the director yourself. It’s like directing your very own movie through a game! Of course there is some math involved as well. I really enjoyed that they had some math involved with this. That way the kids get to have fun as well as learn. Those are the best games.
Story Creations
Traverse a wacky world of your creation by completing mini story challenges. Boost communication skills, learn about storytelling techniques and have a good laugh at the fantastical stories that come out!
This game was a lot of fun for us. My kids love making up their own stories, so they really enjoyed this one. You get to move around to different islands and make up stories along the way. Each of these cards have different things on them that you have to use in your stories. For example: one may say something about a scorpion wanting to drink some milk, along with photos of a cave, orange and start. That means you have to use all of those in your stories. There is also a spinner you have to spin to see what you get. There are things like loud, quiet, running, ect. You’ll have to use those to act out your story too. For example, if you got loud, you’d want to tell the story in loud voice. It really gets everyone in to the game. We’ve had a blast with this one.

You’re welcome. We love OjO Games. They are so fun and educational.
These games look like so much fun and I can see that children can really let their imaginations soar! I especially love the movie making game. My nieces always act out skits and I can see them creating their own movies.
Yes, they sure can! That’s what I really love about these games. Lots of imagination.
I had never heard of Ojo before seeing this. Those games are new to me and look so educational and fun for younger children.
They are certainly educational. Very fun too.
I like games that teach kids. Learning is so important for kids with everything that is going on right now.
I do as well. They’re the best kinds of games.
I love games that are educational too. The Story Creations sounds like a lot of fun. I can just imagine the funny stories that come out of playing it.
I love that as well. Educational games are the best.
I haven’t heard of these games before, but I think my youngest would probably enjoy them all!
They sure are a lot of fun.
I always find some new awesome activity idea on your blog. Love it! I waiting for my friend’s family this weekend and I am sure that the kids will have a lot of fun with these Ojo Games.
I’m so glad to hear that. It’s been a lot of fun with these games too. The kids love them.
These look so fun! My kids will surely love these!
They sure are fun. We had a lot of fun playing them.
These look really fun! My kids would love the shapes game. Really any chance for them to try and problem solve, they love lately.
That’s so great to hear. I’m sure they would certainly love these then.
I love playing games that are not just fun but educational too. Will check those games out.
We really love fun and educational games too.
I love games that are educational! The movie director game looks especially fun! Will have to order a few of these for my family!
They are all tons of fun.
I like that it is a lot of pieces and so hands on. You have to think to play it and that is so much better. Thinking is what is taken out of some games.
That’s what we really love about them too.
I haven’t heard of these games before. I would love to try them. My kids spend too much time on electronics and I would like to get them thinking and strategizing like this.
I try to do games like this so that the electronics are used less. Luckily my kids are pretty good at finding things to do that don’t involve electronics.
This looks like great fun games for the kids, I will check it out for my kids too. They will enjoy it.
They are tons of fun. We love them all.
