Board Games 11: The Kids of Carcasonne

This is the first of our Christmas board games and we gave it to Lucy on Christmas Eve so we could spend some time playing it. Lucy often begs to play Carcasoone with us so we thought we would get her this modified children's version of Carcasonne. The Kids of Carcasonne is a very fun game about completing roads. The first player to use up all their wooden pieces wins. Although Lucy seems to understand the concept she does not always maximise her chances in the way she plays - often she will do things to make the roads look good or fill in a blank space rather than placing her piece in the best way to win. It is a great game for 4 year olds and a very basic beginning to Carcasonne.
