For ages 12 years and up, 2-6 players. Buy it on the company’s site or on Amazon. Game Play: Players take turns discarding cards on top of matching suits or ranks.

Incredible Fun With Bumper Balls
Have you ever seen Bumper Balls? Well now you have and you will absolutely want some! These balls are inflatable and there is a cavity opening right down the middle for a person to stand in. There are handles for the occupant to hang on to and shoulder straps – more on the straps later… They can be used in a game of soccer or simply just running around and bumping into one another like bumper cars. You definitely want an electric air pump to blow them up or you will be blowing them up forever. It even takes a while to blow up two with a pump. As a…

Rescuing Sleeping Beauty – SmartGames
I have children ranging in age from 13 through 32 (almost). We have seen alot of changes in all those years and the greatest of all is technology. With our oldest two boys technology wasn’t an issue. Not even a little bit. Cell phones in everyone’s pocket didn’t really come close to being possible until their later years in high school. Then our middle child came along and not having a cell phone in high school was a huge stigma issue. But still – even then the phone was really for calls so they could spend hours on the phone, or texting. Our youngest two – well they have already…

Modarri’s Rad Race Course Is A Huge Hit This Holiday Season! GIVEAWAY
The Modarri Design and Drive street track race course is officially a HUGE hit in my house! My little men were absolutely captivated by it from the second the box entered our living room. There is a car to build that comes with two or three different designs as well as a foam track that is massive! The track has many different options as to how it is built. I allowed them to pick whatever way they wanted to do it. As you can see it takes up most of our living room floor!

Diggin’ Dino Bones – Dinosaur Game Fun
Do your children love dinosaurs? This fascination definitely seems to be timeless – all of my children ranging in age from 13-31 loved dinosaurs and now my grandchildren do. And over the last couple decades that interest carries with them as they get older – because Jurassic Park movies and books are keeping that thrill alive. Now our grandchildren get to experience loving dinosaurs in a whole new way with Diggin’ Dino Bones – a puzzle game. In this game the children are paleontologist commissioned to find the bones of a specific dinosaur. They search the excavation site and the goal is to be the first to find and assemble…

ReadySetz Urban Playset – Easy To Set Up and Hours Of Fun
Every little girl grew up wanting their very own dollhouse. I was no different and for my two girls I built dollhouses – what a task that was. But now ReadySetz has changed the game with their 3D Urban Playset. This is not the cardboard from days of old—this material is durable, reinforced to be strong (so strong it can hold 100-pounds and it doesn’t collapse), water repellent, and vibrantly printed on both sides. More than a cardboard box, ReadySetz has everything a kid could dream of — ramps, trap doors, tunnels, landing pads – surrounded by a large photo realistic backdrop of an Urban landscape or Space Base. Each…

The Secret To Pet Photos
Pet Photos This year I have decided to do a black and white photo a day – every single day of 2018. The majority of my photos end up being pet photos of my gorgeous dog – Xena Lee, one or more of our horses. They are all naturals for photos. For the most part they all are hams in front of the camera except for our Newfoundland who is constantly more interested in the “bee in the window”. The Woofie is the answer to our pet photos struggles. It is available in three colors – but just what is it? It is a simple silicone clip that attaches to…

Supply Storage Strap – The Answer To So Many Needs
We own horses and they have outdoor fields and indoor stalls. They spend most of their time outside but in poor weather conditions they have stalls to go into. When you own horses there is never enough storage space and when you do store things they need to be out of the way so horses don’t trip on them or simply step on them and break whatever you spent your hard earned money on. Accidents happen – but doing what we can to prevent them is critical. That is why I love this storage strap. All week we have been cleaning up the barn – we board at a facility…
