For decades, people have played the classic board game Monopoly. Brought to the market in 1935, the original game featured players buying "streets" and then building "houses" and "hotels" to increase the value of the property. Intended for children ages 5-8, Monopoly Jr. delivers a version of the game for those a bit too young to play with the big kids.
