Questions about this age
Which Qwirkle should a 6-year-old start with?
The classic wooden tile game. The edition with trays is easier for small hands; our Qwirkle guide compares all of them.
Are there cooperative games for this age?
Yes: Gnomes at Night, Cauldron Quest, Space Escape and Pizza Pie. They are harder than the preschool co-ops.
Is a 251-piece puzzle too much at seven?
Not for a child who likes puzzles. The Jaguar-shaped puzzle is marked 7+, and the 100-piece glow puzzles are a gentler step.
