Deddy Bears Series 3 – Giant Coffin Bears!

[Ad- gifted products] Robin is a huge fan of teddies, of things that are slightly strange, and of blind bags – so she was pumped to hear about the third series of Deddy Bears launching, which included not only new bears to collect, but also jumbo versions of the smaller bears! Now, you can collect key chain versions, smaller plushies, medium plushies and large plushies, each with their own back stories and some with little coffins to sleep in.

Freak Marbles – Refreshed Classic

[Ad- gifted products] I remember playing marbles as a kid, at my grandparents house, where the marbles were in the back barn used for games of knock out.

Don’t Panic – Guessing Under Pressure

[Ad- gifted product] Another Geek Retreat tabletop night has come around and this time Robin was super excited to play Don’t Panic, as it’s a game that takes batteries. She is one of those kids that when you mention we need to take batteries, she assumes it’s going to sing, light up, and just be so much more fun. Don’t Panic is a card game where you have a buzzer and timer, which is what needs the batteries, and otherwise is a pretty straightforward game.
