P for Pizza Kids Menu – Ideal for Younger Children

Posted on January 27, 2025February 3, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to board games, P for Pizza is one that we’ve played time and time again. It’s a very easy to set up and play game, with no real rules needing explaining, as it feels so natural! We use to play P for Pizza as a starter game for our bi-weekly board games at Geek Retreat, but we found Robin really struggled to keep up with the rest of us, due to being so much younger. When they released P for Pizza Kids Menu, she was really pumped to have a version designed for younger kids!

That’s Not a Hat tests your Bluffing and Memory

[Ad- gifted product] Some Monday’s we are a bit pressed for time. That’s when smaller, ice-breaker style tabletop games come out and are perfect to play. That’s Not a Hat is all about bluffing what card you are currently moving to another person. We played as a family, with Dann, Amelia and Robin joining in while Kai played DND at our local Geek Retreat. The game itself was very easy to pick up and start with, which was ideal for our group.

[Ad- gifted products] Another Monday has passed, and we did our normal thing of playing a new card game down at our local Geek Retreat!

Both of the games are created by Farplace, an animal rescue, with the money raised from these cards going towards the care of various rescue animals.

Unicorn Scarf – Perfect for Cold Evenings

Posted on December 26, 2024January 8, 2025 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted products] Robin is a lover of accessories. If something is cute, functional and fun, she likely wants it! When she saw the Unicorn Scarf from Wicked Uncle, she was all over it. We go out to Christmas All Wrapped Up each year, and Robin really wanted to do a little photoshoot there while picking out our Christmas tree. As it gets colder, having a scarf is such a fun idea, especially if the scarf is sort of like a plushie that you get to wear on your neck.

SpongeBob SquarePants: The Patrick Star Game – Bikini Bottom is Back!

Posted on December 16, 2024December 27, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] We are a big gaming family, possibly due to the fact that Dann and I both work in games so are always playing games anyway. Robin and Kai are both very much gamers themselves, with Amelia being more into art than games. Robin is our big Xbox Gamer and with her absolute love of SpongeBob SquarePants, we were excited to see SpongeBob SquarePants: The Patrick Star game, which is a new SpongeBob game! Previously, another gaming company released a “rehydrated” version of a SpongeBob game I had as a kid, and to be honest, I was disappointed – so there was high hopes for this one!
