  • Malarky Game
    Malarky!
    In this party game, players try to fool their opponents into thinking that their answers to off-beat questions (Why are racquetballs blue?) are correct, while trying to figure out out the correct answer themselves. (It's the easiest colour to see.) The rules include options for team play. Bluff, be creative, think fast, keep a straight face - you got it!

    Take The Cake
    Thanks to Today's Parent Magazine's Top picks I was alerted to this game. It has won many other awards even though it is brand new. Shake the sprinkle shaker and see what colourful shapes pour out. If any match a cupcake then add them to the card. Fine motor skills, colour and shape identification. It says Age 4+ but 3+ worked at our house.

  • are we there yet card game
    Are we there yet?
    I've had so much fun with girfriends on long road trips with this game - and no kids in the car as an excuse. I would recommend for ages 8 - adult. Constantly searching for the objects on the cards keeps your mind on your surroundings and your observation skills tested. Debbie recommends it for local trips across our vast lower mainland too.

  • smart mouth gamezingo game
    Smart Mouth and Zingo
    Smart Mouth - have you got one ....?... or a few in your family? For those already reading ages 8+ this hilarious quick thinking high adrenaline game will get those creative juices flowing. Slide the gizmo that dispenses letters and you will receive two letter tiles. The first person to shout out a word of 5 letters or more with one of the letters at the beginning and the other as the end of the word wins those tiles. The most tiles at the end wins. I love that there are so many variations to this game included. When playing with younger players you can have no restrictions on the number of letters in the word to even out the playing field. Tips for teachers too. This games helps with spelling, word recognition/formation, and vocabulary.
    $22.99
    For younger kids check out Thinkfun's equally fun (similar dispensing gizmo) Zingo.. .

  • honeybee tree game
    Honeybee Tree
    Players choose their numbered flower trays and then carefully pull leaves out of the honey tree without " waking" the sleeping bees! If you pull out the wrong leaf or your hand starts to shake, bees will come tumbling out of the tree into your tray. Once all the leaves are removed from the honey tree, or all the bees are awake and out of the tree, the player with the least amount of bees in his/her flower tray is the winner.

    Great for counting and sharing skills.
