I didn't play board games all that much as a kid, but I did make up some of my own. I remember we made some for a school project and I made a spinner out of a plastic spoon.
As far as actual games, I remember us having Chutes and Ladders, and vaguely remember Monopoly, but not sure we had it or someone else did. In later years I remember having Mouse Trap, which was my favorite because of all the moving pieces.
Not really a board game, but I did play Connect Four as a kid also. And that game that had fish mouths with magnets inside that sat in holes and spun around in a wind up wheel and you fished for them with a little fishing rod with a magnet on the string.
Oh and this is from the 90s, but some may appreciate "Dizzy Dryer" a game with a battery powered dryer drum with no door, that you threw foam clothes in and whoever had the least clothes spun out won.
