When was the last time you played a game?
Actually sat down and had fun with no electronics, gadgets or anything that requires electricity? One of my favourite memories growing up was playing board games with my sister as a child. She is four years younger than I and we were/are the best of friends. As we get older we seem to play less and less. I love when my children are up for a family game night. It gives me a reason to hang out, be free and have a blast!
I recently went to Facebook, Gameology and took the quiz to see what my game sign was.
After a few short questions I got my answer.
Strategicorn
Once we knew what my game sign was we knew what games would be great for our family game night. When you have a big family, lots of children, it does not take much to have a party. A few games, some refreshments and some yummy snacks. When planning a party you need to make sure you have guests. So invite a few friends over to make it extra fun. Great to have some competition outside of the family as well. Don’t forget the music. Music sets the mood and I prefer songs form the 80’s to get the party started.
When you have a party do you decorate and set a theme? I am pretty laid back and a few napkins and twirly straws is usually as festive as I get. Note to self, get more into themes! I do however stress about a clean house. Having four children (3 who live at home) 3 dogs and a Macaw, the house is not spotless. So cleaning before guests arrive takes up a lot of my time. We usually order pizza to feed everyone since cooking would mean getting the kitchen dirty.
Mattel sent me an awesome box to get our Game on! The box included:
- Party planning tips and tricks
- Fridge magnets party checklist
- fortune cookies
- bottle openers
- coasters
- cocktail napkins
- Gameology reminder cards
- Variety of games
Get started on your very own game party and visit Gameology on Facebook to get your game sign and for chances to win games. The thing we enjoyed most about this box was there was something for everyone. My youngest to my oldest all had a blast!
