Sheep Dip is an adorable children’s card game

[Ad- gifted product] Out at our local Geek Retreat, while Kai had his kid’s DnD Session, Dann, Robin, Amelia and I often enjoy a milkshake and play some of the board games that they have there. We have donated a few that are showcased, but this time decided to bring along something new to play. Sheep Dip is a simple game, where players will take turns drawing a card from the ewe pile, reading out the action, then doing it. It’s not very hard to follow along and see what is happening.

A Day Out at Halloween at Cammas Hall

Cammas Hall is a local pick-your-own farm that we tend to go to every single year. We’ve done a lot of strawberry picking and have gone every year to their Halloween event, but this year it feels bigger than ever. Cammas Hall has a giant corn maze, a spooky child friendly walk, a teen-aimed spooky walk, a pumpkin volcano, massive pumpkin patch and actors around photo areas! It seems to keep growing each year, getting to be quite a big event. You will need to pre-book and pay an entrance fee to go into the spooky walk and pumpkin patch. The corn maze is a priced add on.

Ghost Castle is a board game full of traps!

[Ad- gifted product] We do have a massive shelf of board games in our household, and really do enjoy playing them! Recievently, we’ve found ourselves quite busy with after school activities and homework, but as October break gets closer, having a spooky board game on hand is always a good idea! Robin, Dann and I all took some time out of our Saturday to play Ghost Castle – a new tabletop game that takes up a lot of vertical space, becoming a sort of mouse-trap style board game!

[Ad- gifted product] When Robin found out about the new PAW Patrol movie, she was very excited. Adding a new video game in the mix, however, always makes the experience so much more! The PAW Patrol World game is a 3D adventure where you can explore Adventure Bay, Jake’s Mountain, a Jungle and Barkingburg. Robin really enjoys how each of the PAW Patrol games are unique. This one focuses around TV Show-inspired missions and has a bunch of collectables.

Midweek Meal Inspo; Salmon Rice Bowl, Spooky Stuffed Peppers, Peanut Noodles & more

This week felt like a really busy one! I am not sure if it was because the number of school trips that happened, or the fact that all three children are now in multipole extra curricular activities, but everything was very quick when it came to dinnertime! We also tried some new foods, which is always fun. This week, Kai wasn’t so interested in cooking – which is totally expected. He did cook dough balls and potato salad at school, which was very fun to try! Many of these meals were really quick anyway, so let’s get into them.
