Competitive = Ticket to Ride. Perfect for that age, and fun for parents, too. Much better than most mainstream games out there.
Cooperative = Pandemic. Loads of fun if you want to play with rather than against the kids.
Best runner up to Zooloretto. Competitive, but also gets good play and those ages would get it quick.

This is a good abstract, if your kids like that. It is definitely a fun game.

This is a fun game also. Feels a little "young" though. I play it with my 9 and 5 year olds. I guess it could be fun for 10 and 12, but not something they will likely keep coming back to as they get older.

Apples to Apples is the dumbest game in the history of ever. My family loves it because it's the one game I can never win. Just....irritates the hell out of me.

Ticket to Ride is awesome. Get that.
Dont get Monopoly or Clue or any of those "popular" games. They're all crap.

Love this game. Given their ages you should be able to destroy the kids and assert your dominance over the family.

If you want to torture your family for a good 4-5 hours, get the Battlestar Galactica board game. It's fun as hell, but good lord is it a marathon.

This is in the lead. We have most of "those games". We also have Blockus and do like that.

Another vote for Cranium. Make sure it's the regular version. Don't get the stupid ### junior (or whatever it's called) version.

I was coming in to recommend Blokus as well.
Ticket to Ride is a good choice.
I'll add a couple others:
Kill Dr. Lucky (similar to Clue, but much better. Suggested 12 and up but should be fine for a 10 year old)
Munchkin(it's like Dungeons and Dragons, I think as I never played it as a kid, but can be a lot of fun)

INELUCTABLE MODALITY OF THE VISIBLE: AT LEAST THAT IF NO MORE, thought through my eyes. Signatures of all things I am here to read, seaspawn and seawrack, the nearing tide, that rusty boot. Snotgreen, bluesilver, rust: coloured signs. Limits of the diaphane. But he adds: in bodies. Then he was aware of them bodies before of them coloured. How? By knocking his sconce against them, sure. Go easy. Bald he was and a millionaire, maestro di color che sanno. Limit of the diaphane in. Why in? Diaphane, adiaphane. If you can put your five fingers through it, it is a gate, if not a door. Shut your eyes and see.Stephen closed his eyes to hear his boots crush crackling wrack and shells. You are walking through it howsomever. I am, a stride at a time. A very short space of time through very short times of space. Five, six: the nacheinander. Exactly: and that is the ineluctable modality of the audible. Open your eyes. No. Jesus! If I fell over a cliff that beetles o'er his base, fell through the nebeneinander ineluctably. I am getting on nicely in the dark. My ash sword hangs at my side. Tap with it: they do. My two feet in his boots are at the end of his legs, nebeneinander. Sounds solid: made by the mallet of Los Demiurgos. Am I walking into eternity along Sandymount strand? Crush, crack, crick, crick. Wild sea money. Dominie Deasy kens them a'.Won't you come to Sandymount,Madeline the mare? Rhythm begins, you see. I hear. A catalectic tetrameter of iambs marching. No, agallop: deline the mare. Open your eyes now. I will. One moment. Has all vanished since? If I open and am for ever in the black adiaphane. Basta! I will see if I can see. See now. There all the time without you: and ever shall be, world without end. Reading two pages apiece of seven books every night, eh? I was young. You bowed to yourself in the mirror, stepping forward to applause earnestly, striking face. Hurray for the #######ed idiot! Hray! No-one saw: tell no-one. Books you were going to write with letters for titles. Have you read his F? O yes, but I prefer Q. Yes, but W is wonderful. O yes, W. Remember your epiphanies on green oval leaves, deeply deep, copies to be sent if you died to all the great libraries of the world, including Alexandria? Someone was to read them there after a few thousand year, a mahamanvantara. Pico della Mirandola like. Ay, very like a whale. When one reads these strange pages of one long gone one feels that one is at one with one who once...لقد ظل الشعور بأن الوعي الإنساني يتطور، ويتنامى منذ زمن هيجل على الاقل . وعلى الرغم من أن الكينونة الإنسانية تعني أن يكون المرء شخصا - من ثم - فريدا غير قابل للاستنساخ ، فلذا يتطلب أن يكون نصه كذلك ، وكذلك تلقيه للنص ، حيث يتحول بقراءته إلى الداخل . داخل الداخل !.”― جيمس جويس, عوليس
