Or better yet, visit any of these fantastic spots around NYC where you can sit down and play a game together. Click on through to see where to get your game on.

The Tot-Spot: Georges-André Vintage Café

Some places throw a couple of high chairs into the back and call themselves kid-friendly. Others, like the Georges-Andre Vintage Cafe, take the term to heart and turn their establishments into a playground that’s fun for both kids and their parents.

This vintage cafe is a treat for both kid and adult. Aside from a generous collection of worn (and loved) classic board games, Georges-Andre’s has a tot playpen and even a mini cafe so the kids can serve up fake fraps while you drink your real ones. It’s the perfect place to have some family time, take in the welcoming atmosphere, and cozy around a board game.
