carcassonne?
it's a board game sorta thing. think it's german? basically you have to lay tiles down to build roads and cities and stuff. looks simple enough to play with the kids but also looks like you can also get deep enough into strategy if you want to play more seriously

I always thought "Dutch oven" was strictly US terminology.

It is, although wikipedia taught me tonight it was a British person in 1704 copying the Dutch pans and exporting them to America where they became known as Dutch ovens. Plus, "The name has lived on for more than 300 years".
