My son just got the game Zingo for his fourth birthday, and it would definitely be appropriate for a 5-year-old. Every kid who has tried it here so far loves it. It's like Bingo except you try to beat other people to getting the little tile for your card, and one of the players is in charge of the tile dispenser, which delivers two random tiles every time you push it down. The tiles have picture and word combinations rather than numbers. I'm probably not doing the best job desribing this, but it's a fun game that a 5-year-old could even play by himself, or it's fun for the whole family.
