[Ad- gifted product] From the creators of the Creepy Cute Sticker Book, there is now The Creepy Cute Love Coloring Book, which has a bunch of adorable-yet-creepy designs within it. These designs are all sort of a love theme, kind of like a creepy, cute, romantic type book. Think ghostly chocolate covered strawberries, zombie teddies, love potions or boxes of deadly chocolate. It’s quite a unique mix of different designs.

[Ad- gifted products] We play a lot of board games and often find mechanics we have previously seen, done in new ways. This week, when we went to Geek Retreat to play Garden Heist, we didn’t realize how different and unique this game would be! The setup itself already feels very different – using the bottom of the box, you basically set up a little house with a little window. Then, outside the house, there is a bunch of trees and garden items placed in a specific order. Meeples start off at the other end of the board, opposite of the house, so that you can see the garden from the house window.

Robin is obsessed with Dog Man. She has all the books in the series, has played tons of the video game, and now we have started collecting the board games as well. Dog Man is a comic series, if you aren’t familiar, that’s got a silly dog-cop character that is often getting up to mischief! As someone whos read all of the books, she was excited to start playing the board games.

[Ad- gifted products] Robin is known to enjoy her baths. From a young age, she’s always been a fan of bath toys, bath gel, snow, bath bombs and the like. We’ve previously even purchase a few different bath soap foams, with Robin having a current favorite, before we were contacted about Fozzi’s Foam for Fun! Robin very much wanted to try out this new foam, so we put three bottles to the test.

[Ad- gifted products] When it comes to the old excuse that your dog ate your homework, there is already a silly picture in your head. The toy – or rather board game? – The Dog Ate My Homework takes the general silly idea and makes it into a quick to learn, easy to play tabletop game where your child can feed a toy dog drawings and watch them get all scrambled up. The game comes with a bunch of papers with different drawings, a dog that you put together, treat tokens, and instructions. We played this game at our local Geek Retreat on one of our board game nights after school.
