The Best Single Player Games for Your Homeschool

Games are so much fun and a great way to learn but what if you have an only child, a child who likes to play more than others, or kids who need alone time but they still want to play games?

I have a solution for you – one player games.

Most single player games come with varying levels of puzzles of challenges. This makes them a great investment because they can work for a large range of ages and grow with your kids.

Most of our one player games can be played by both Emily and I while still challenging us both.

I love using these games for strewing and carschooling. They are perfect for those times when I just need a break and a quick, easy, and fun way to keep Emily entertained for a bit.

The majority of these single player games also have the added benefit of being logic and critical thinking games so you can also check that off of your homeschool to do list as well.

Tracking Your Single Player Game Play

Being able to quantify game playing as “school” doesn’t have to be hard. You can just keep track of the games you play. I reccomend using this free printable game log. It is perfect for logging the games you’ve played and easy to add into a homeschool portfolio if you have to keep one.
