Tout Autour Du Monde - Happy Families

Happy Families, but make it a Borneo orangutan, a Dumbo octopus, a Bengal tiger and a greater bird-of-paradise. The classic card game, completely reimagined around seven animal families, with illustrations beautiful enough that children want to look at every card they're dealt rather than just collect and discard. A genuinely lovely thing.

We love it because:

• Seven families of six animals each, from sharks and beetles to primates and cephalopods, and each one illustrated with the same gorgeous detail as the Moulin Roty Animals of the World range. The cards are a little nature education all by themselves
• The family overview cards mean everyone can see which animals they're looking for, which makes the game accessible for younger players without slowing things down for older ones
• Happy Families is one of those games that genuinely works across a wide age range: a six-year-old and a grown-up can play it together and both be properly engaged
• Made in France on PEFC certified paper. A small but good thing

What's in the box:

• 42 animal cards across 7 families: sharks, birds, snakes, felines, beetles, primates and cephalopods
