Crazy Aaron's Very Merry Tryazon Party

What fantabulous products!! Tryazon has had several Crazy Aaron's Thinking Putty parties and we have applied for all of them because my KIDS ARE CRAZY for this stuff. We got to try several different products this time. Think putties of all shapes and sizes, some even had scents. I am totally sold on the mini tins- and now keep them on my desk and use them on the daily! We got slime and cloud slime- the cloud slime is so fun and not as sticky as real slime so I know this will be new purchases for me in life! I love how there are so many different varieties of Crazy Aaron products, some are color changing, some have little toys or beads in them, some have scents. There is a version of this product for everyone. The minis were my very favorite- they have just the right amount of thinking putty in them. Every single product from Crazy Aaron's would make a great stocking stuffer. So LOAD UP! 

 Thank you to Tryazon and Crazy Aaron's for letting us host this party and share this amazing product with so many family and friends. 

 

Even big kids love Connetix magnetic tiles

 My kids are a bit "too old" for toys, but about two years ago they fell in love with their younger cousins' magnetic tiles. They begged me to get them some for Christmas and spent hours on our family vacation building with their cousins who were a full decade younger they they were. 

I just couldn't justify buying them a set because I thought they were too expensive when my kids would just "grow out of them" boy was I wrong! When I won this party from Tryazon I knew my kids were going to be thrilled. They came up with several "big kid" ideas of how to play with them. Not only did they like to make slow motion destruction videos, they discovered they could set them up up like targets at a shooting range and use their air soft and nerf guns to knock down the targets. I am so thankful to have these. They are super sturdy and don't take up a lot of storage space, I am sure we will keep them for years and years and play with them often. 

Thank you to Tryazon and Connetix for the free sample we received in exchange for my review. All the words expressed here are my own. 

Footlogix Tryazon Spa night review

Cracked, dry heels is something I have been dealing with for many years. So when I found out I could host a Footlogix pedicure night I knew I had to ump at the chance. Footlogix has an Ultimate Pedi Kit that they sent to me with several extra foot files to share with friends. Let's just say that we had some crusty heels in our group and many shy foot people but we were impressed with the results. There were a few steps to the process- first they have a callus softener spray that is put on the feet for about 5 minutes. Then you start filing your feet- after you are satisfied with your results they have another product called a Daily Maintenance formula moose. This is put on after and then again every day for as long as you want. We were happy with the results we got on our feet.

Thank you Footlogix and Tryazon for allowing us to try these fun products! 

 

Piggy Piggy game review

 

Thank you to Hasbro and Tryazon for the free game we received in order for our honest opinion. 

When this game showed up I was pretty excited to play it, my teenagers took one look at the game "box" and were not impressed. However after reading the direction and watching a video (we still didn't really understand) we tried playing the game. From that point on the kids were hooked. They really thought it was a fun game and we have played it MANY times since we received it. My kids say it reminds them of another game with animals in the title but I wasn't familiar enough with that game. We had a lot of fun playing and can't wait to share it with the kids' younger cousins. 

The Super Fun Family Time Game review

 

It is always fun to get to try out a new game. This game comes from DSS Game and is an easy card game to play around the dinner table. One player spins to see if the topic will be funniest, worst or best and then everyone else has to give an answer to the question. The reader then decides who has the best answer and that person wins the card. We like to play this nightly around the dinner table just to have some non electronic fun discussions. 

I was given a free product by DSS Games and Tryazon in exchange for my review.  

Tryazon "The Baffling Bowl!" Party

 We haven't had a board game to try for a long time, but when I heard that Tryazon had a party for a new game and the party needed to happen while we were on vacation- I signed us up. My kids groaned as they have gotten used to all my crazy games and sometimes they don't find them fun but after one night playing The Baffling Bowl! they were having a great time. We laughed so hard that we cried, we played boys against girls and the boys team won but three points so the game was very close.

Kids say this game is a lot like "fishbowl" and I know there is another card game that is also very similar but this game has it's own set of rules that makes it unique. Before the game starts everyone grabs a booklet and picks out two words to tear out and throw into the bowl (my kids were appalled- "is this a one time use game?" However there are 600 unique words and you can save the used words if you want to. There are three rounds- round one consists of getting people to guess the word without using two key words also on the paper. Round two people can use no words or their dominate hand and try to get people to guess the words- (same words are put back in the bowl.) The last round is  where it gets interesting- people get one chance to say the word BACKWARDS. It's a lot harder than it sounds and we had a lot of laughs this round. Over all I thought the game was pretty fun. It does seem weird that you use paper cards and that it could be a game that eventually runs out, and I didn't like that they didn't send a timer. In the instructions it says "use a cell phone" naw I am old school games that need a timer please send one! 

Thanks to Tryazon and Gouda games for giving us the chance to try this fun game for free in exchange for my review. 

Ravenburger "That's Not A Hat" Game night review/Tryazon Party

 

Trying new games is something our family loves to do so when Ravensburger asked us to try out three of their new games we couldn't say no! I will list my games in order from favorite to not so favorite.

Level 8- the joke at our house is that someone got mad when they were playing Phase 10 with their family and decided to go ahead and write their own rules to play by. If you have played Phase 10 then this game will be fairly easy to catch on to. There are 8 levels and cards are numbered 1-15 with skip cards and wilds. On each level there is a pattern of sorts you must get a run of a certain amount 1,2,3,4 10,11,12 or there are a few that you have to get the same number like four pairs. They also have a few levels where color matters. Each person has their own discard pile and when it is the next player's turn they can draw from any of the discard piles or from the middle. A round ends when someone has laid their cards and then runs out of cards but being able to play on someone else's line or on their own. The person who runs out of cards moves down two levels and anyone who has laid their level also gets to move down but just one. It is a very fun game- depending on how many people you have playing it, it can take a fairly long time to play.

Pinata Blast is a few game for kids of all ages. This one is a bit easier for the younger audience to catch on to. There are several die that all have candy images on them. Each player is given seven cards that also have images of candy on them. The person with the pinata stick rolls all the dice and then chaos begins. If you see a candy that matches your card you lay it down and then grab the dice with your candy on it but look out there is a green die and whatever image is on that one makes that particular candy bad for the round and you will lose your card if you accidentally grab that kind. When we played it with three people it was very easy to avoid the "bad candy"but when we added in an extra two people it was much harder to remember. This is a very fun game and can be played in under 10 minutes so it's a good game for those with a shorter attention span or if you are just trying to kill a few minutes! 

That's not a Hat- the reason for the party.... well we just honestly didn't get this game. I don't know if it's because we all have terrible memories but every round we played, no one actually remembered what they had. I guess we need to try it again, maybe with a different group of people but I wasn't very impressed with this one. 

That being said all the games came in nice small boxes so they are so easy to take on trips. I had not played Ravensburger games before and became a big fan of theirs and I can not wait to see what else they put out!

Thank you Tryazon and Ravenburger for another fun night with family and friends. 

Tryazon and Pillow Cube Party

We got to try out the #pillowcube pillow the last few weeks- I love the cooling features of the pillow and if you are a true side sleeper this is a good pillow. I apparently sleep a bit too much on my stomach! However it has been passed on to another side sleeper in my house who loves it! We love the cute little sloth and they have several other options of kid cube pillows, a cat, a unicron and a shark. I am a big fan of their Cubezzz Sleep Supplements. I love that they have some melatonin and magnesium in them. Gave me restful sleep and I woke up feeling refreshed. #tryazon We really enjoyed this party and were glad to host. The t-shirts with the 90s vibes were also enjoyed by all!
