Don’t Fall for It – Trivia-based Board Game

[Ad- gifted product] Every other week, we go to our local Geek Retreat to try out a new board game! This time, we played some Don’t Fall for It, which is a trivia-based board game with a large range of subjects. The age rating on this board game is ten and above, though, Robin is nine (nearly ten) so we figured we would see how it would go. The board itself was interesting; it folds out into a tower that you then can place a bunch of cardboard planks across the inside of the tower. There is a pre-made little triangle that goes in the bottom, and needs to be snug.

Beaker Creatures Skull Mountain Volcano – Mystery Monsters

[Ad- gifted product] Robin is a huge fan of small figures, creatures, and blind boxes. This made the concept of Beaker Creatures fantastic for her, especially with their Beaker Creatures Reactor Pods and their Beaker Creatures Skull Mountain Volcano. These toys are aimed at children who are interested in science and learning, which is an interesting way to build more of an understanding of science.

5 Up – Travel Sized Die Rolling Game

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to summertime and holidays, having a few travel board games up your sleave can be a real saver! We went on holiday recently to Center Parcs, and brought along 5 Up, a soft, light weight, travel-sized die rolling game that could easily be spread out and played on a small table or in a car. In the evening on one of our days, we all wanted to play a game together, so 5 Up fit in well.

Taggeez Full Collection – Lots of Customization Options

[Ad – Gifted Products] Robin, who has always been a bit of a maximalist, has gotten into charms. We picked up some shoe charms from a farmers market a few months back, then got her a pair of Crocs to put them on, so when she saw that Taggeez had a full collection of stationary, accessories, and charm mystery packs, she wanted to try them out! This entire collection can be found at Tesco, where most of the items come in either bright pink or a vibrant blue. We checked out a few of these items for our Back to School Essentials.

Water Art Magic Sticker Creation Kit – Scientific Fun

[Ad- gifted product] We often find ourselves, especially in the summer, playing with toys! It seems that many households default to video games, which we also play a lot of, but having a few engaging toys to break up the day and have screen free fun is always a must. Amelia and Robin have seen Water Art before – we actually included the Brainstorm Water Art kit in our Christmas Gift Guide for kids last year, so when we saw that they now have a Water Art Magic Sticker Creation kit, we were well interested!
