[Ad – Gifted Products] We play a board game or card game every other Monday, while at Geek Retreat! This little afterschool tradition has become such a fun part of our Monday. This time, we played Fuzzballs Pizza Thief Card Game – which is a very interesting, more complex than normal game. Fuzzballs are these adorable cat characters, which Robin has a few toys of. They are quirky, silly, and often eating pizza. In this card game, you are actually planning a pizza party for them but need to make sure they have the perfect amount of pizza.

[Ad – Gifted Products] Every Monday we go to Geek Retreat and play a new board game! This time, we played another Dog Man game – Dog Man: Big Jim Begins Dice Game. Unlike Dog Man: The Card Game, this game is all about rolling dice! Dog Man, if you didn’t know, is a very popular book character, who’s had a number of board games and even a movie. Robin absolutely loves reading Dog Man books, and so we always keep an eye out for board games and card games that match. Dog Man: Big Jim Begins Dice Game is a simple, children’s game all about rolling dice and spending them.

[Ad – Gifted Product] When it comes to mindful crafting, we have done a lot of Crystal Art kits in our time! It feels like, with so many rainy days, having some easy, indoor activities is the way to go! Robin had picked out the Crystal Art Keyring Kit Perfect Pets for one of these rainy days which contains three different, pet-themed keychains for her to fill full of gems. Each of the keychains are double-sided, so there are a lot of gems to be placing on!

[Ad – Gifted Product] When it comes to card games, we play a select few of them at our board game night at Geek Retreat. We often have board games or dice games that have card-related aspects to them, but we don’t find many card games themselves. It feels like the market is full of the same old, so when someone said Flip 7 was “better than Uno” I was really curious to see what my children thought of it. I must say, however, that Flip 7 is hyped up A LOT. And, that sort of hype, had us all having such a high expectation.

[Ad – Gifted Product] Valentine’s Day isn’t only an adult holiday, and as such, having something fun for children to get involved with makes for a fantastic day. Robin was pumped to try out the Chocolate Lolly Maker, which allows you to take some chocolate and make it into something new! If you, like us, have tons of chocolate left over from Christmas, giving it a new life around Valentine’s Day is actually a great way to get your leftover candy consumed.
