Peanuts Surprise Slides, Marvel Dominoes and Mix Up! Fix Up!
I enjoy playing board games with my grandson,
especially games by Wonder Forge featuring popular characters. And I always appreciate receiving a surprise
package of games to check out and review from Wonder Forge. Today, Wonder Forge is also sponsoring a
giveaway of the Peanuts Surprise Slides Game.
Details of the giveaway are at the end of the post.
Here is my review of the three games I received:
Peanuts Surprise Slides Game
This game can drive you crazy (but isn’t that part of
the fun?) because it keeps changing. The
board has four areas – one for each season that provide shortcut possibilities
for each player. But… it is a big but…if
when you spin, you land on a particular figure you can mix up the season blocks
and change where the shortcut paths are.
Therefore there are always new opportunities to move ahead and also new
chances to have them disappear. This
type of game is great for kids – and adults – who like that kind of fast paced
change – now you have it, now you don’t.
The “paths” are called “slides”, hence the name of the game. This game gave my six year old grandson the
giggles. The box says ages 3+ but I think
it is a little too sophisticated for a three year old and would save it for the
5+ group.
Personally, I love the Peanuts
theme. It is unisex (Yeah!!), features
colorful, playful seasonal graphics (Yeah!) and most of all there are NO
weapons (Double yeah!!!). Just pure
fun. Enjoy.
Marvel Dominoes Games
This simple classic dominoes game can be enjoyed by 3 year olds
as well as 8 year olds. It is easy to
play – you just need to match the pictures of the cards on the board with one
in your hand. Younger kids can easily
participate and older kids will enjoy matching up their favorite characters.

Mix Up! Fix Up! Featuring Doc
McStuffins

I don’t think most three year olds will be
able to handle this game independently, but perhaps the dedicated Doc McStuffins fans among
them will do just fine. This looks like
a good game to play in teams with an adult and small child teaming up. This game will develop deduction skills (important when serious school begins) while
enjoying being the Doc.

The Peanuts game and the Marvel Dominoes look great! WE have found that board games are an excellent way to connect with our grandson who learned to use his iPad at 18 months and will be a part of the all-electronic-all-the-time generation. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
I think my kids would like this game!
Oh my, what a great game to add to family fun night!
I am so sorry about my posting name, I don't blog at all, so the posting options are very limited for me. I find google to be far too invasive to give my actual contact info to, & i don't use email, so this is my terrible google account name. I'm sorry. So sorry.
I liked your Facebook page (Amanda Tu) What a fun giveaway!
This looks like a fabulous game that my two boys would love to play!
I like that the sliders game can change at anytime while playing. My kids would enjoy this and so wouldn't I.
My kids have always enjoyed games. This looks like a lot of fun.
These all look so fun. My two oldest grandsons would love the sliders game; they've had enough of Chutes & Ladders, I think, and this one looks similar enough that the 4 year old would get it. Yay! Choose me! :-D
Thanks for the opportunity!
I love playing games with my kiddos!
My kids love playing games. We have game nights on the weekend to spend time together as a whole family
This looks like so much fun, my nieces would love it!
I also liked your fb page :)

I think playing games are fun family moments. But I must admit most of the games we play are on the Xbox 360 and I'm trying to change that!
What a great collection of games. These would be great for us because we are really getting into playing games with our little one. Great way to teach her patience in waiting her turn.
I have 3 boys and this is right up their alley! I'd definitely save this for Christmas!
I 'like' you on Facebook under Kate Newton.
Also e-mailed you. Thanks so much for the opportunity!
