I highly support playing negotiation and/or lying+consequence board games with children. The skills are lifelong, and the stakes are much lower than when they have to exercise them in the real world.
Coup [0] and Love Letter [1] are both easy entry and quick play examples.
Also, I got in the habit of making my kids negotiate their own payment for household tasks. With agreement based on the skill with which they do so. ;)

- TehShrike 5y agoCockroach Poker is another good bluffing game that 4-year-olds can play.
- gwd 5y agoThat's a good one to play with in-laws who don't speak your language as well. But as much as I enjoy it, I'm not entirely convinced there's any more to it than straight up luck.
- philsnow 5y agoWhat part of Love Letter has negotiation or lying(+consequences)? In my house it's nearly strictly deduction.
- ethbr0 5y agoMaybe it's because I played Coup first, but the way we play there's continuous talking about what's in ones hand. Which gives it more of a poker flavor.
