My son (9 next month) loves playing Munchkins, Risk, Monopoly, Settlers of Catan. We've also played Puerto Rico, but it's not very fun with only two players.

There are various 2p variants for puerto rico. We play 2p all the time, see http://boardgamegeek.com/thread/650038/puerto-rico-as-a-2-pl... Sometimes we play behind the laptop with tropic euro (anagram) exchanging some tactile and atmosphere for time

Thanks, I'll definitely check that out!

San Juan, while a slightly different dynamic, is also a fun Puerto Rico-like game that works well with two players.
