International Playthings provided me with an iPlay Air Hockey Game for my 3-year old triplets to test. Following is my review of this super cool toy.
Let me start by saying I had reservations about the iPlay Air Hockey Game before I received it. My kids love to go to the arcades at Walt Disney World, […]

Connect Four was one of my favorite games ever when I was younger. It was always the most popular game for indoor recess on rainy or snowy days. I think I liked it best because the kid I happened to have a crush on also liked the game. I remember […]

I love Clue. Growing up, I do think that this was my favorite board game, probably because we didn’t have it. I imagine for other people, who actually owned it, the great suspense and intrigue of the it probably wore off after the first dozen games or so. For me, though, […]

One of Bald Man’s least favorite commercials depicts some type of fast retail environment (there are variations on the scene) where customers are quickly making their way through the checkout lane by making their purchases via a credit/debit card swipe. Everything is moving so smoothly until, oh my gosh how dare he, […]

I have a summer birthday and so had many outdoor parties as a kid. I loved the games that my mom would think up to play in the yard, and never laughed so hard as when I was watching my friends rolling eggs with their noses and such!
My daughter recently had her first Field […]

So, a friend spent a portion of this weekend participating in a blogathon to raise money for charity. At one point, she and another blogathoner (yes, I’m making up words, I think), started chatting about a game called Swingball. From what I gathered, it seemed similar to what I grew up with as […]

I really thought we were going to miss the whole Pokémon craze. Our oldest is just now 6, and I guess I expected the excitement over the cards and game to have passed by now. Not that I have anything against them, I don’t know anything about them (yet), but it appears that […]

Strawberry Shortcake Dance Dance Revolution was one of the gifts my daughter received for her birthday. After watching her have a blast on the real Dance Dance Revolution for PS2 (when she could get us away from Guitar Hero), my sister thought this would be a fun gift for her niece.
We’ve…erm…I mean…..she’s […]

This month’s Family and Relationship Channel’s theme is, what else?, LOVE! Happy February.
To fit with the theme, which will be hosted by Char Polanosky at our b5media sister blog, Weary Parent, I thought I’d start a list of all those fun outside games that we used to love as kids, and that seem to […]

One of the games my daughter received for Christmas was Milton Bradley’s, Guess Who? It’s a good game for introducing deductive logic to the kids, though I think that kids younger than the recommended 6 year old could easily begin to master this game. One my favorite features of the game is the […]
