Skillmatics Guess in 10 Game review



We had fun playing these Skillmatic Guess in 10 games around the campfire, around a table, and discovered they would also be very easy to play on the long car trips we will have over the Christmas break!  We got to try the United States and the Animal card sets. On each card are three clues, one person reads the first two clues and then the other person or team are to ask 10 questions to see if they can get the answer right. Our three older kids (11, 13, and 15) could get the States one really fast but the animal ones took them a bit longer. This game is PERFECT for my 8 year old and he was a little more challenged on each deck compared to his older siblings. There are many more card sets that can be purchased and is a great educational gift for Christmas. Thank you to Tryazon and Skillmatics for allowing me to host this party.

Niagara Chocolates Tryazon Party

 

Wonderful, tasty, yummy chocolates! These Niagara chocolates were so fun to share with friends and family after we had eaten all the mass produced Halloween candy. These were so much better. All of the flavors were amazing and I could tell they were made with the upmost care. My very favorite flavor was the Toasted Coconut Clusters- I am also very excited to try my toffee bar which I haven't done yet. I like that they come in bags for sharing but also many of the flavors come in candy bar sizes as well. The dark chocolate and the milk chocolate are both very well made. Thank you to Niagara Chocolates and Tryazon for letting us try these fun chocolates!

Flashback Razor scooter review

My kids were lucky enough to try out the "new" Flashback Razor scooter- it's funny I posted about this on Facebook and one of my friends had had one of these when he was a kid- he is mid 30s so now we know what they are flashing back to! I give this product 4 out of 5 stars and here is why. The scooter is beautiful I love the color combo, my kids love the big wheels because we have kind of rough town roads so those little tiny plastic wheels sure don't ride smoothly for them. These tires are great and my kids and ride the few blocks to church on this. I think it will last us for years to come. The only complaint I have with it is that it was a bit difficult to assemble- it was hard to get the brakes set just perfectly we still need to work on that a bit and we couldn't use a bike pump but we did it them aired up with my husband's air compressor. Thankful to Razor and Tryazon for letting us try this product out.

Family Game night thanks to Spin Master



 








Kids vs Parents (and grandparents) game night- What a blast! Voting on favorite game is a mixed bag at our house but we enjoyed playing all of them. Let's start with the latest addition to the Hedbanz family is Hedbanz Blast Off! The kids really enjoyed this one- it's a lot like the original however with a timing element in the headband that will eject the card if the person doesn't figure out what the card says in time. The cards went flying all over it was a bunch of fun! 

We had played Beat the Parents before but this game is new and improved they have fun challenges that help you move your game piece closer to the end one of them was putting all our heads in a circle and one person says Ha then the next and so on until someone actually starts laughing. Of course the kids won this one as they always do! lol

The Jumanji game has a pretty cool set up- with a glowing caldron in the middle that is interactive. This one will make you jump up and down on one foot to get away from insects on the island or running to find head gear to help you on your trek through the jungle. The kids really had a blast with this one. 

The Netflix game at least for our family is more of an adult game and with that being said it wasn't really easy for us either because we don't watch Netflix. It's a little like apples to apples- there is a judge that draws a situation card then each player has to pitch a Netflix show with a plot twist. Would be a great game for the Netflix enthusiast in your family.

The final game is a Harry Potter game- Kiah is the only one in our family who knows anything about Harry Potter but the game was easy to catch onto. It's called Cath the Golden Snitch. You have to try to build sets of cards while people are trying to build their own sets or steal yours. Throw in the fact that someone may throw a Golden Snitch at you and you need to try to catch it. 

We always love game nights so it was fun to get so many new ones to try. 

Thank you Spin Master and Tryazon for this opportunity!

Hues and Cues Board Game review

 

I had seen this game online several times and was so curious as to how you play it. Basically the challenge of the game is describing a color on a huge board of squares with only one or two words. The person who is trying to describe the color wants to do the best that they can because they get points based on how close people are to the right square. The game goes to 50 points (but we have often played to 25 just to make it go faster. It can be played with as many as 10 people and as few as 3. Our 8 year old really enjoys it so it can be played with young and old alike. I guess the only way that someone wouldn't be able to play is if they are color blind! LOL It is highly recommended by my family who really loves to play a lot of board games. This one will be played for for years to come. Thanks again for letting our group try this game out!

Wiley Wallaby Gourmet Licorice Tryazon Party

I am not usually a fan of candy but these are AMAZING! The amount of flavors that Wiley Wallaby has- I mean there are so many and they are ALL good. I loved the texture and the flavor of all of them. The biggest hit with my kids were the sourrageous drops! They are little circles with a hard sour outer candy shell with sweet licorice on the inside. These were the only ones I didn't like but the first ones gone at the house! They also had a few organic flavors that come in smaller sizes and bags.  I enjoyed trying the huckleberry flavored ones. First off who has ever heard of huckleberry? These were amazing! I liked how each piece is roughly two bits and just enough that one can be enough or maybe a few more if you want (bag suggests that three is a serving size)  Thank you Tryazon and Wiley- Wallaby for letting myself and my group of friends to try your wonderful products. They can be found in the town I live in which I feel is pretty amazing because we don't always get new products quickly! I would highly recommend these to everyone.

Silk'n toothwave tooth brush review

 



I hosted a party for Silk'n a few months back and I also got to try this new toothwave toothbrush out. It is nice a quiet for an electric toothbrush- it kind of tickles when I use it. I thought it made my teeth cleaner- and kept them nice and smooth. I liked that there were two different toothbrush head sizes so I could use the one that felt more comfortable to me. This toothbrush was just released in the US and retails for $299. I have a coupon code for $100 for the next few days if anyone is interested. Thank you Tryazon and Silk'n for letting me try another one of your products.

Fun Spin Master Cars for the whole family

 

Spin Master and Tryazon are at it again. We had a great time trying out their awesome RC vehicles. There were three that we tried a tiny red one that was able to climb and drive on walls and ceilings and then the big Monster Jam cars. They were a lot of fun. Our very favorite one was the one that measured 1:6 scale to a real truck. We had a lot of fun doing our own demo derby with the small one and then having the big one that could run over the little one. It was so fun!

Try this on your next past night!!

 

Tryazon sent us a fun wonderful and tasty treat this past week. We got Cucina Artica pasta sauce that had just a wonderful fresh tomato taste. I did like how it wasn't too full of chunks so none of my kids complained about that part. But the hit for sure was the the Taste Republic four cheese tortelloni the taste was so wonderful and my kid just kept asking for more! We found them at Whole Foods in the cold section and then brought them home and after four minutes in boiling water they were ready to eat. They were oh so yummy and I can't wait until we get to try more of the pasta line. The great news is they are gluten free so many can enjoy even if they can't usually have noodles!

Bestway Spring Swim Party

 

We had a pool party in Kansas on April Fool's Day? It wasn't a joke! Lots of fun had to day even with a few inches of water in a VERY big pool. Everyone was super impressed with the size. It only took about one hour to do the pool set up. We got LOTS of advice of what to put under it and around it to make sure we have a successful summer with the pool from other pool owners. The kids thought the water was great even if it was only 60 degrees outside. I can't believe how big this Coleman Power Swim Vista Series II pool was 22 feet across! It will take several days to fill this to the brim or a water truck coming out to fill it up. The kids had a blast, the windows were loved by all so fun to look through and also to look in. I know they will be even more fun when the pool is full and we put the floating lights on it. It comes with a ladder, cover filter. I think we got a lot of kids ready for summer today, now they can't wait to swim in the backyard for three months! Thanks Bestway and Tryazon for allowing us to host this party!

Valentine's Ritual Box Review


What a fun box! I have loved Rituals for a long time so I jumped on the chance to try a new product box. The Rituals of Sakura box was a lot of fun. The scent is cherry blossoms and rice milk. I thought I would not enjoy the scent of cherry but it was a nice soft scent that I really enjoyed. It came with a hand soap, body foam wash, a body lotion and a body scrub. I am excited to continue to use this product. The other fun thing about these boxes is the boxes themselves. They are so beautiful and so nice to keep around. They are very sturdy and my kids like to keep the boxes and put things in them. I received this box for free from Tryazon and Rituals all opinions stated in here are my own.
