As a final note from our team as we embark on our Christmas Break, we are delighted to share with you this Half Term’s newsletter. Inside, you will find a list of fun and educationally rich board game recommendations from our tutors team and our Director of Studies Rebecca, as well as suggestions of festive activities for the whole family to enjoy during the Christmas period.

As our term ends and we head into the Christmas Holidays, now is the time of year for family board games. We at Trefoil Tutors thought we would put together a list of board games that are both great fun and educational, along with a selection of our tutors’ favourite games for our tutees to try. For those with their 11 + exams on the horizon, this time of year can often be stressful for students and finding a way to practise the techniques in an interactive, non-test based format can really help students develop their reasoning skills. Whether it is problem solving, numeracy, spatial, verbal or non-verbal these are the games for you as the winter nights draw in!

Vivek - RICHARD OSMAN’S HOUSE OF GAMES

Although this has been adapted from the television show, the board game is a very enjoyable version of the game. A serendipitous mixture of lateral thinking and logical reasoning coupled with a good spoonful of silliness, this game provides fun for all the family.
