Description:
Winner of the 2010 Australian Book Industry Awards Book of the Year for Older Children (age range 8 to 14 years)
Parlour Games for Modern Families sets out to revive the tradition of indoor family games- push aside the consoles, turn off the telly, and bring some mental stimulation, silliness and laughter, joy and connection back into your living room.
This book is bursting with games of logic and memory, wordplay, card games, role-play, and rough and tumble. Not a single game requires equipment that you won't find in your average home- a pack of cards, a dictionary, an hourglass, dice, paper, and pen.
Games are organised thematically and referenced for age-appropriateness. All are set out with clear rules and instructions. There are games that will challenge and stimulate you, and games that will have you in fits; games that can last all night, and games to fill that empty half-hour before tea; games for adults and older children, and games for your four-year-old's birthday party.
Parlour Games for Modern Families, a book for fun-lovers aged four to 104, winds back the clock to remind you of games you'd forgotten and then a whole lot more. Whether you dip into it as the urge takes you or read it from cover to cover, a very good time is guaranteed.
'It's amazing how much fun you can have with blindfolds, a thimble, socks, a ping-pong ball, and a lot of people who love each other.'
-The Times
'In this day and age, it's hard to prise the kids away from their electronic equipment (TV, computers, game consoles and on the list goes), not to mention y

Holds stuff nicely - classic addition for the bureau!
Color: Brown, Size: 10.2" x 8.4" x 1.8"
Ordered this as a gift for my son, who always seems to have a small pile of "stuff" accumulating on his bureau.
He is not a fan of leather, so this tray was perfect! And it was a great value for the price.
Ordered it in brown. It has a nice feel to it and (color-wise has a rich tone).
Perfect for his keys, spare change he finds in his pockets, extra watchbands, whatever.
Makes a great gift! I definitely recommend!

Nice design
Color: Dark Grey Shagreen, Size: 10.2" x 8.4" x 1.8"
The design is nice and doesn’t take up too much space, but it holds a lot more than I expected. The materials feel sturdy and quality, and it looks great. It's made it so much easier to stay organized with our keys and wallets.

Luxury Organization
Color: Pebble Black, Size: 9.5in x 7.9in
Keep your keys, wallet, and all other every day carry items in one, high quality location. Very nice material and build quality that accessorizes my dresser perfectly. The size is appropriate for everything that belongs in your pockets. Overall the best value for your $ I’ve seen, especially if you can catch a discount.

Very nice! Great gift!
Color: Pebble Black, Size: 9.5in x 7.9in
The photos don’t do this item justice. This is very high-quality construction and great look. My son loved it. I will order more for gifts.
