The Cat Mitt Game challenges you to act like a cat

[Ad- gifted product] We have played a lot of board games in our time. Every other Monday, as a part of girls night, we go to our local Geek Retreat and play a board game together as a family while enjoying milkshakes. There aren’t a lot of card games or board games that feel absolutely 100 percent unique and don’t remind us of something else. The Cat Mitt Game, however, is unlike anything we have every placed in our lives.

Dinner and Games at Draughts Hackney

[Ad- gifted experience] Draughts is a board game bar that has a few different locations in London! Dann and I decided to invite a bunch of friends to Draughts in Hackney, where we had some food and enjoyed some board games. As you can play both longform and short board games here, they work on a sort of booking slot time, where you can pay a fee to come in and enjoy their collection of games for a set amount of hours, ordering any food and drinks you’d like to have on top of that fee.

Stretch ‘n’ Smash Pig – Funny Sensory Toy

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to stress balls and funny stretchy toys, there are a lot out there! We’ve previously reviewed action figures that stretch and bend, but they felt very much like a Kai thing. This Stretch ‘n’ Smash Pig however is a super funny toy for all – as it’s a silly animal that everyone knows, that can stretch and pull. Robin was delighted to find the feel of this creature, though I wasn’t so sure it would be her thing at first, has become a toy she regularly is playing with.
