It’s about a week until the next term break…at least for those in Victoria and I’m sure there are some who would be going away somewhere. So I thought I’d give you a few suggestions on what type of games that our E-Shop has, which would make great travel buddies. Not only are they educational, fun, but also…wait for this….there’s no need for batteries! Even if you’re not, these would be perfect for all those cold, wet and blustery days.
So here are some great ideas:
Magic Forest Magnetic Puzzler rrp$20.00
I featured this in my puzzle pack giveaway and I still am harping on about it because, it’s one of my kids’ favourites. I mean really, why sell something my kids won’t like right?! They are after all my “testers”. The Magic Forest is great for travelling because it’s magnetic, so won’t fall off the board. An all-in-one game with all the challenges included inside this “booklet” and all the puzzle pieces too. Great for kids aged 5 and even up to adults. Yes, there are some pretty awesome challenges for us too! Besides solving the puzzle, why not create a story afterwards with each challenge. That’s for when say, you’re at a stop to have lunch or even when you’re at your holiday destination while you’re in the room.
9 piece Magnetic Puzzle rrp$30.00
Another favourite of my kids is this Wooden 9 Piece Magnetic Colour Puzzle. It’s basically about putting the magnetic pieces together. Some pieces might repel, so you never know which combination might work. It can end up with hours of intriguing fun!
Wooden Tic Tac Toe - Spaceship rrp$15.00
The Wooden Tic Tac Toe might not be one for when you’re in the car. Or maybe it could be if your kids have got something solid like a book underneath the mat. But, it is great for when you’re passing time, waiting for food to arrive or even when you’re lounging around at your holiday home. It comes with a small pouch to store all the bits and bobs!.
Chicken Shuffle rrp$25
This Chicken Shuffle game by Smart Games is making a come-back on this blog because well, it’s a fab game! It’s not just shuffling the pieces to create an image. It’s more than that. Try and shuffle the pieces so that each chicken sits on an egg or change the challenge to a more difficult one and try to shuffle so that the chicken isn’t sitting on any of the other animals! Gah! Not easy I tell you! But again…hours of fun, because that’s what you want when you’re travelling, something to keep them occupied. Again, like all the Smart Games puzzles, it’s all stored in the one box! Great for kids from ages 6 and all the way to adults.
IQ Puzzler by Smart Games rrp$18.00
Finally the game that can not only challenge them (and you) in 2D but also 3D – the IQ Puzzler. Again, all in one – with the beaded puzzle and challenge book in a box. Try to complete the challenges by placing the correct pieces in the right order. Looks easy? Think again!
Those are just a handful of awesome games from our E-Shop, check-out what I can’t include because…well…there’s just too many!
