Family Glue 100 Dice Party Pack

What an awesome set. The first thing I thought of was replacing dice in the games that are missing them in our home instead of borrowing from another game.

Then I thought of crafts that could be made with so many colors, and learning. You get 10 colors of 10 dice for a total of 100 dice. The bag is great for storing the 100 dice plus many more.

You could even split these up for gift giving if you make up your own family fun version of trivia .

Now I am inspired to go through our game cabinet and get it all neat and ready for more family game nights ahead.


This 100 Dice Party Pack can be found on Amazon.

Bring the Stars to You

Amazing and the best glow in the dark star stickers I have seen yet. We have done the kind for the dollar store, and other upper scale stores, but they always fall of the walls, ceiling etc.

These stars, moons, planets, and rockets stay bright and keep recharging over and over again. My picture is taken after my husband just holding these by the lights for a few seconds you can also wee where his fingers were when they were covered in his hands.

My daughters love these and I might even take a few for the porch ceiling for the a nice touch during the summer while sitting out there relaxing in the evening.

I am not sure how these are when you remove them yet. If you do it right away I don't see there being a problem but over time not sure if these will pull the paint off or leave a residue behind.

Family Game Night with Family Alias

We have always enjoyed playing games, but finding new games we haven't played yet to add to our collection is sometimes hard.

I recently went through our board games and have a list of older games that we have played so much that we are missing pieces or they are falling apart so I added those to our buy again list.

Family Alias is a great game for big or small families. Our family had quite a good time playing. At first my husband was not quite in it because he didn't think it would be fun but after a few turns he was right in the game like everyone else.

Easy to set up, play, and gives several options for play, and also a way to make it easier for children to play by giving them other options to get their points to move on the board. You can see in my picture one of my daughters helping out the other when she had to explain the picture without saying the word on the card.

This gives both children and adults a fun way to be able to explain something to someone else by using other words to get them to guess the right word. I have to warn you the adult cards are harder then you would think, at least the first card was for me. I told my husband I would have had to get a dictionary out for a couple of the words but the family cards are friendly for any age.

You also have wild cards that are just fun and silly ways to do things during the game and then kids cards that bring the game down a bit so that the youngest can play just as well as the older game players.

Slotted for ages 7 and up. 2-8 players. We played with 4 people and the youngest was 8. She loves family game nights.

Alias and other games made by Tactic can be found on Amazon.


What Tactic has to say about their product.

Family Alias ($20 for ages 7+) The Alias game that is equally challenging to both children and adults. In this game, players use a spinner to see who you partner is for that round. For grownups there are special explaining styles that make the game even more hilarious.

Alphabet Magnets are Classic

To be honest I have always wanted a complete set like this for my children. I have always had to order from two different places to get a set of upper and lowercase alphabet magnets. This set from Somasix has both the upper and lower case alphabet but they also include a set of numbers.

These are great for playing, learning, and making words. Add a couple of these and you can write sentences.

I love the bright colors and they work great on our fridge, freezer, filing cabinet, and magnetic white board. My girls love them. This is something that can keep my grand daughter busy for quite a while.


The set of magnets can be found on Amazon.

New Games for Marksville

MarksvilleandMe reviews Last Mouse Lost & Go Bong 

Our family loves to play new games and the Last Mouse Lost was no different except maybe only 2 people can play at a time. Our family loves to play new games and the Last Mouse Lost was no different except maybe only 2 people can play at a time. This is recommended for ages 5 and above. Last Mouse Lost takes 10 or less minutes to play.

I like that it is light, small, no pieces to lose, and very fun and easy to play. The object is that the last person who punches a mouse down will be the loser. My girls also love to just push all of the mice down and reverse the play piece and start again, kind of like a stress reliever. 

Last Mouse Lost is the perfect quiet game for a car ride. There are no small pieces and if it falls or flies through the air it shouldn't hurt anyone or anything. It is small so it doesn't take up much room. The board is made out of a Silicone type material and flips over once your game is done to start again.

Go Bong is new to our family we have had Last Mouse for quite sometime and it still keeps our children busy. Go bong gives you 6 different ways to play with almost the same kind of board as the Last Mouse Lost does. Our favorite way to play is the Solitaire Knight Game. These games are easy to play, fun, and travel well.

These games can be found on Amazon.

What FoxMind has to say about their product

FoxMind's Go Bong! and Last Mouse Lost are Easy, Affordable, Addictive Fun
Jump start your neurons by playing FoxMind's new self-contained new games, Last Mouse Lost and Go Bong!
In Go Bong!™, play several solitaire games or challenge an opponent in other games.
Both, Go Bong and Last Mouse Lost are "smart" game  choices as stocking stuffers, executive desk gifts, waiting room games, and coffee table conversation pieces.

Go Bong (MSRP $8.99) is a self-contained one or two-player game that is perfect for passing the time while traveling or used simply for stress relief because it is quite relaxing to squish the game board bumps.. The square rubberized board has rows of puffed up bubble-like mounds. Players try to use different logic patterns to press down the bumps in strategy and deductive reasoning style games.
AND... as soon as the game is over, just flip it over and it's ready to go again.

Last Mouse Lost (MSRP $7.99) is also a self-contained game.  It's a simple strategy game for two players to compete in a battle of quick math and chance. The objective of the game is make your opponent press down the last mouse and not get caught with the last mouse standing. Players take turns pressing down any number of mice they wish in a single row. The player who presses down the last mouse loses the round.
AND... as soon as the game is over, just flip it over and it's ready to go again. Whoever wins three of five rounds wins the game!

Both Last Mouse Lost and Go Bong are dishwasher safe to clean too!

Kitty Fun

We have three kitties and they love to play around. Most of the time it is in the wee hours of the morning when we hear them running back and forth across the floor, knocking things down, but we do see them during the day as well cleaning each other, cuddling, and forever crawling on my chest or lap to sleep.

This tunnel is something we can set up and they will come back again and again to play with. They have a great time popping in and out of the holes and trying to catch each other.

Awesome fun for your active kitties. Easy to set up and folds flat for storage in between uses.



This cat tunnel can be found on Amazon.

Awesome Reward & Responsibility Chart

This is a cling that can be put on a refrigerator or filing cabinet, for us it is the filing cabinet and my 8 year old uses this to keep her on track.

We made sure our surface (filing cabinet) was clean then we put on the cling and made sure there were no bubbles.

The magnets cling well and this is a good simple chart to help your child learn responsibility.

This chart is great for both boys or girls, and will grow with them until their tween years at least .

We started with one thing at a time and then added more things to do as she got used to the new routine.

This reward chart can be found on Amazon.
