We appriciate everyone's participation to surpass our goal of 1 million board game playing minutes. The purpose of the Million Minute Family Challenge is to provide a simple, but fun way for family and friends to enjoy the benefits of board games and card games. Playing board and card games together encourages interaction and communication among many other benefits. All you need to do: Commit to playing a game for at least 20 minutes sometime between September and December and keep track of the minutes your group plays. Visit this website to log your minutes and see how you and other groups are doing. With groups in all 50 states working together, we can reach our goal of 1 million minutes. 1,000 families, groups, or organizations x 50 states x 20 minutes of game play = 1 million minutes If you are new to this site, or your information has changed and you want to be notified when the 2010 Million Minute Family Challenge sign-up begins (August 2010) please click here.
