Oh the game of Perfection brings me back to my childhood… Oh the stress… I kid I kid… well a little… I remember trying to move fast and line up the shapes and I would get so close and bam! The time was up and the game would pop and scare me to death… This was one of the original games that was my Dad’s from childhood so maybe the timer loudness was just from that game at the time. But even though it does make you jump, it also makes you think and it is pretty fun to play, just as fun as ever. 

Mouse Trap Game - The Mouse Trap game, a longtime family favorite, is good for zany action and lots of laughs. Scurry around the board collecting cheese and stealing cheese from other players...but watch out for the trap! While kids are engaged in playing the Mouse Trap game, they can also practice valuable skills in construction, cause and effect, and decision making. As they interact with the trap, a working, multi-part machine, kids can practice construction skills. Kids will have so much fun playing this wacky game!

Playing Mouse Trap was such a fun game. This game was like having a playset, and a game all in one. Set up the traps and then head off to try not to get caught up in one. This was a game we played a lot as kids. We never realized then that this game was teaching us valuable skills in construction, cause and effect, and decision making we just knew it was a lot of fun and we had the chance to trap one of our friends. This game is still popular as ever. 

Downspin Game - Play the strategic game filled with gears, twists, and turns with Downspin!

Downspin is a new to me and my family game. A game of building cranking and outwitting. The game is simple to play simply crank one gear at a time, then work their way toward getting all of their tokens from the top of the chute, down into the bottom chute first to win! I cannot wait to show this game to my little nephew, he s is big fan of everything mechanical and loves to build, he will get a kick out of playing this game that is for sure.

Cranium Sculpt It Game, this game is a blast! My daughter had grown up playing various Cranium games and this is her favorite. She is a natural born artist (she gets this from my husband, me… not so much) loving to draw, sculpt and create. With this game she has a ball sculpting out her answer and we all have a little chuckle when it comes time for me to sculpt but it is all in clean fun.
