My parents joined me in playing a lot of my games this month. Here is the list of all the new-to-them games, along with their top picks for the month.
1. Kanagawa
2. Nippon
3. Agility
4. The Name of the Rose
5. Roll Player
6. The Castles of Burgundy: The Card Game
7. A Feast for Odin
8. Adventure Land

10. Aeon's End
11. Pandemic Iberia
12. Taluva

23. Perry Rhodan: The Cosmic League
24. Yardmaster Express (later rethemed as Backyard Builders Treehouse)
25. Leaving Earth
Both of my parents decided that their favorites were the Dominion upgrade packs, but they didn't think it was fair to include those in their lists, because they were already predisposed to like them. Thus, Dominion gets a special bonus award instead.
