Old school board games and toys go modern

Even in today’s digital era, board games and toys are an important part of children’s development. Some iconic games are making sweeping changes to modernize.

Hasbro just launched Ms. Monopoly, designed to celebrate female trailblazers. In fact, in this game, women make more than men, giving them an early advantage.

The Game of Life, once a game that included a banker and wads of colorful cash, has gone to electronic banking. A card reader now calculates each player’s earnings. The player with the most money remaining on their card after retirement wins.

Barbie even recently released a Rosa Parks doll.
