The seven best family travel games tested 

How hard could it be to name three things you use to communicate with or three words that rhyme with last? As the five-second timer runs down, things get tricky! A super family game.

5 Second Rule Travel, £8.49, Amazon

What could be easier than matching colours and words? Well, when the red card says green and the blue one states pink, you have to call the cards right to win. Fast-paced fun for all the family.

Color Addict, £10.47, Amazon

Players must come up with a word beginning with the letter card and falls into the unveiled category. The first to do so shouts “Qwaffle!”, starts the timer and others must attempt to get their own word.

Qwaffle, £14.99, Amazon

This shout-out, symbol-matching card game is all about super-quick reactions. On each of the 55 cards are eight symbols – somehow every card has a match for another.

Dobble, £12, Argos

Guess a word containing the letter on the draw card and the dice rolled will tell you if it should be at the beginning, middle or end. Simple enough - but not with a ticking timebomb piling on the pressure!

Pass The Bomb, £24.99, John Lewis

A bluffing game where cards are gifted and received and with so much going on players can easily forget who got what. Get called out for saying the wrong thing and you’ll be penalised.

That’s not a Hat, £7.99, Ravensburger

It looks like Tetris at first glance and can also be played solo. The challenge cards ask you to lay out the pieces a certain way. Easy to start with, but the cards get progressively harder.
