Spare time is really scarce these days but when I do get a few moments to unwind I like to do puzzles or play games. Sometimes I need a short breaks during the day and have found some cool and free websites that help me focus more. My kids would even enjoy some of these!

Solitaire is a classic and always fun to play. Solitaire Bliss offers several different versions. It’s free to play and you don’t have to register to play. Just hop over when you have some free time and pick a game!
MahjongDragon is another fun one. It’s pretty new to me. My grandma likes to play Mahjong so I wanted to see what it was all about. Mahjong is one of the most popular games in East Asia. You can learn about the game in the Mahjong Encyclopedia and play different versions of the game including special ones for the holidays for hours of fun.
Sudoku is another one that my grandma is a fan of. I’m not very good at it but it’s a great thinking game. The concept is a simple one but it takes some time to get the hang of, at least for me. This website will teach you to play. If you are already an experienced Sudoku player, just pick the hard or “wicked” level of play!
Growing up I played a lot of Yahtzee. It brings back a lot of memories. My grandpa recently passed away — this was one of his favorite games and even though he had Alzheimer disease, he still loved to play. It’s about time I teach my oldest two kids this game and yahtzeeonline.org is a great place for them to learn!
These are just a few fun and free games that can be played online in your spare time. What online games do YOU like to play for free?
