Despicable Me 2 Board Games for Kids

Fans of Gru and the gang will love these Despicable Me 2 Board Games for Kids!  They’re the perfect compliment to your Despicable Me party! Right now, there are four different Despicable Me 2 Board games available. The great thing about these games is that they are easily tailored for any skill level. You just have to get a bit creative. For example, if the regular rules of Monopoly are too complex, come up with your own simpler rules. No one said you have to play by the written rules all the time!

Despicable Me 2 Board Games for Kids

The following post contains affiliate links. We recommend only what we love. 

Despicable Me 2 Board Games for Kids: Operation

Operation Despicable Me 2 Silly Skill Game

This game is one of our favorite Despicable Me 2 board games! It’s very similar to the original Operation game.  Here, Stuart is having a real bad day and the kids have to help him fix his nutty noggin and get rid of the unicorn fluff. The game comes with 11 funatomy parts, 4 minions and one storage bag. The twist on this game? You can earn Minion Medics for extra points. It takes a steady hand to play this game. If you have younger kids, try loosening the rules a bit. For example, each kid gets one “buzz” per turn.

Despicable Me 2 board games for kids: Monopoly

Monopoly Despicable Me 2 Game

Monopoly is one of the most popular board games for kids, but it can be a little complex. I love that the Despicable Me 2 version is a whole lot simpler. While it follows the basic rules of the original Monopoly, you’ll see that the board game itself is much smaller. In fact, it’s easy enough for kids ages 4 and up! Game includes 4 minion tokens, spinner pod with Nom Nom Tom minion, game track, game tray (plus 2 clips), 16 Cupcake tokens, 8 Ice-Cream Sundae tokens, 16 Property cards, 16 Chance cards, Banana Bucks and game guide.

Memory Despicable Me 2 board games for kids Memory Game Despicable Me Edition

Did you know they have a Memory game in just about every single childhood theme imaginable? This one is pretty much all about the Minions. 48 to be exact! That’s how many potential pairs you can find. I always recommend starting with a smaller number for younger kids. After all, laying out 96 cards can be a bit daunting. Of course, if you’re having a Despicable Me 2 party, you can divide the kids into teams! Have them take turns finding matches. That way, you can use all the cards and it won’t be a three-hour game!

Despicable Me 2 Battle Pods

Despicable Me 2 Battle Pods Game

Kids are always enticed by a battle between the Good and bad,  and this game deals exactly with that. Here the kids have to pit the Evil Minions against their Good Counterparts and help the latter win the battle. The battle pods are the best ones you have ever seen and they can be easily launched with the super cool Gru car launcher. This game comes with 5 evil minions and 5 good ones and throughout the game it is indeed a treat to watch the battle between the Good and the evil. Simply put 2 minions in the Pod and let the Gru car launcher crush them together.

These Despicable Me 2 board games are widely popular among little ones for their intriguing gameplay and superb features. Surprise your kids with these board games and let them enjoy Despicable me 2 games like never before. Looking for more Minion fun?

    The one similar to Operation looks cool. That’s one of the games we loved as kids and our kids still love.

    I love the Monopoly one. Seems like it might be a good way to introduce kids to regular Monopoly. 🙂
