The Game of Life marks its 50th anniversary this year and traces roots to the mid-1800s. Milton Bradley, a draftsman, created The Checkered Game of Life in 1860, a hit that inspired later versions by Reuben Kramer for the Milton Bradley Co. in 1960.
Bradley advocated for kindergarten as a preschool stage focused on learning through words and play. Children then moved from home to school, memorizing facts and socializing with peers to develop behavior and cooperation.
A look at Monopoly's 75th anniversary and the precursor The Landlord's Game created by Lizzie Magie in 1903. The article notes Magie's aim to counter monopolistic land ownership and describes Charles Darrow sketching a Atlantic City board on a tablecloth in 1932.
Soon Darrow produced two sets daily selling them at four dollars each to a Philadelphia store to test market viability. Parker Brothers rejected the idea in 1934 citing 52 design errors, then began selling Monopoly in 1935. The game expanded to video platforms, many languages, and a Braille edition for accessibility.
