Enchanted Cupcake Party Game

Enchanted Cupcake Party Game is a really fun game!   I initially played with my 6 year old daughter but then roped a couple of my boys into the game to play with her as well.   Somehow they managed to turn even a cupcake building game into a heated competition!   

There is no reading involved and it is a cooperative game, which is great with younger kids.   You are on the same team and not competing against each other, only against the timer.   The game comes with ten adorable cupcakes that you build based on the cards you draw.  You work together against the timer to find the brightly colored cupcake pieces to match your card.    You can find other great game ideas at the Kidwinks 12 Toys of Christmas!

What's in the Cat's Hat



What's in the Cat's Hat is a fun game to play with young and older kids.   I played with my 6 and 8 year olds.  The object of the game is to place an item in the hat and take a turn to guess it.   The game comes with action and question cards that help give you clues to the item.  Depending upon the card you draw,  you end up doing something silly like smell it or feel it with your elbows.   The kids had a great time playing it.   You can make the game a little easier (depending on the age of the participants) by limiting where you get the item from.   Our first game went on for quite some time because you could pick an item from anywhere in the house.   I got a little smarter the second time around and limited the selection to one room at a time!   Check out other fun games this holiday season at the Kidwinks 12 Toys of Christmas!    



It comes with a cool Cat in the Hat hat!

Enter to win kidwinks' 10th Toy of Christmas - Doggie Doo

This is one that I didn't think I was going to like.  I figured it was far too juvenile for me and my boys.  I was wrong!  We love it and end up laughing to tears each time we play.  The noises the dog makes are hilarious but what makes it great is that it is a short fast paced game and there is no reading involved so little ones can play too.
