The PJ Masks Collectible Figure Set is available at Toys “R” Us and includes Catboy, Owlette, Gekko, Luna Girl and Romeo. All figures are in dynamic action poses so your kids will be able to act out creative scenes with the characters.
The PJ Masks Night Sight Game by Wonder Forge is fun for kids and adults to play. I played this with my sons and what I liked best is that we are playing as a team to stop the mischievous Romeo from stealing the city’s toys.
My boys are very competitive so this team game of us against Romeo was a welcome change to the distress that happens when you have one winner. This game also has fun masks that let us see the hidden toy pictures. This is a fun memory team game that would make a great gift.
For creative fun the PJ Masks Crayola Color and Sticker Book. There are so many great 2 sided coloring sheets as well as sheets of stickers. My kids love to color so these are perfect for times when they want to just sit down and spend some time creating their own masterpieces.
Having a budding reader the Ready To Read Book, Time To Be A Hero lets kids join their favorite heroes as they work together to save the day in this Level 1 Ready-to-Read based on PJ Masks, the hit preschool series airing on Disney Junior!
Comment and let me know what you think of the new arrivals.

My little ones love action, it’s rare they play board games, but recently we found a game they love. PlaSmart’s Drop Shot is a fast moving, challenging race game that has 1-4 players competing to see who can reach the top and avoid the last chance drop.
After playing with them once they quickly grasped what they needed to do and now they play on their own very well and it’s a game that keeps them engaged and thinking of strategy. Watch the video below to learn more and of course enter our giveaway for your chance to win a game of your own. You can purchase Drop Shot on Amazon.
It seems the end of the school year is gaining on us. During the summer it’s important to keep your children engaged in learning, but that can be difficult since they want to have fun instead. A great way to combine the two, is by playing a new series of play-at-home games designed to prepare children for the next grade of school by Lakeshore. The games are called Are You Ready? Game Shows and they are available in grades Kindergarten-5th grade.
This new set of innovative learning games provides an easy way for parents to prevent summer learning loss and improve children’s school performance in the coming year. Perfect for summer learning, these games target the most essential math and language skills needed for success in school—while keeping kids engaged as they take on the exciting role of game-show contestant!
I received Are You Ready For 2nd Grade? Game Show for review and played it with my first grader. He was very motivated when he saw the realistic play money. I was amazed at how engaged he was and how well he did answering the questions. You start with the first set and move on to the subsequent sets keeping track of each question with a handy chart that lets you note if the child answered the question correctly.
The chart easily lets you see skills your child has mastered or if they need extra help in a specific area. When your child answers the question correctly they get the dollar amount of the card as a reward. My preschooler quickly wanted to play and I am going to get him the Are You Ready for Kindergarten? Game Show to play over the summer.

Are you ready for a great, fast paced, party or team game? If so, let me tell you about Patch Products: Flash & Furious Game. This game can be played with 2 or more players and you can play on teams with more than 4 players. You need a referee to read the questions and keep track of the lights and answers. You can play with two without a referee but you will definitely want a referee with more than 2 players to keep track of things in this fast paced game.
First after choosing the referee, the players or teams choose a color. Then the referee reads one of the questions and taps the top of the game system to begin. The light will flash a specific color and if it’s your color, you must answer the question quickly. It can pick the same color several times, so you need to have your answers ready quick! The players or teams keep going until one player repeats an answer or is stumped and then they press their color button to stop that round. The losing player or team gets the card and that’s not a good thing because the player or team with the most cards loses! This is a fun game to play at a party with teams!
If you are looking for a good family game, Flash & Furious is an excellent choice. Mommy Ramblings has added Flash& Furious to our 2013 Holiday Gift Guide!!!

You may be full swing into your holiday shopping since Halloween is over and thinking about the little ones on your list. As a mom, I love when something is fun and educational for my kids. A great game that is both of those is Bunny Peek-a-Boo from Smart Games. This game may at first look like an infant toy but don’t be fooled. Named to the Parents Magazine 2013 top picks from Toy Fair, Bunny Peek-a-Boo helps children discover the world of 3D spatial perception. 3D spatial perception is an important skill in reading and mathematical reasoning. There are 60 challenges on 4 different levels for children to solve. Beyond the cards parents and kids can use the blocks to explore other concepts like above/below, inside/outside, visible/hidden, etc. My little guy loved to play with this and was really thinking how to recreate the picture on the card. It’s fun even for my 6-year-old to do the master level challenges.

This game is for ages 6 and up and has a little bit of set up before you can play. You need to assemble the platforms but my brand new 6-year-old loved helping. I would assemble the platforms and he placed them in the appropriate spots on the board. Then you need to attach the game pieces to their base. After that you deal out the appropriate cards to each player and you are ready to play. The object of the game is to complete your mission and collect your mission tile and return to your home space. If you have Mutant Ninja Turtle fans in your home they are sure to love this brand new game!
