The Song Game is the gift of music that promises a happy holiday and beyond. Spontuneous – The Song Game is an old fashioned, tabletop board game, with no electronics.

Created by Nashville-based entrepreneur, Rob Ridgeway, Spontuneous makes a board game out of that crazy occurrence where hearing a particular word spontaneously causes a song to pop into your head. Ridgeway states that “Spontuneous opens up great conversations and connects people through the music they sing and the memories they share. Laughter is 100% guaranteed.”
How to Play Spontuneous:
The objective of Spontuneous is to stump your opponents from being able to sing a song containing the trigger-word you’ve chosen. The players race to be the first to sing a 5-word portion of a song containing that word. The first player to begin singing rolls the dice to advance on the game board. If everyone is stumped, the player who announced the word must be able to back it up with a song of their own otherwise they are penalized. The first player to reach the finish line and complete the Spontuneous Challenge wins!

We sat down to play Spontuneous last weekend on our regularly scheduled family game day. It’s an easy-to-play game that’s fast-paced and will have you laughing from start to finish. Trust me…no one in our family has any singing talent so it was a lot of fun to laugh at one another when trying to “belt out” a tune!
We had 5 adults and one 10 1/2 year old child playing and guess what? Our 10 1/2 year old granddaughter did better than most of the adults! I guess kids her age are really tuned in to the music world these days! One of the really nice things about this board game is that it doesn’t take all day to play. We played it twice and the first time we played it took us about 51 minutes and the second time went faster at about 38 minutes. So, its definitely one of those games that you can complete in relatively short time…perfect for family game night when you don’t have a lot of time set aside to play.
Spontuneous has been the #1 Best Selling Board Game on Amazon for the past 2 holiday seasons and I can see why! It’s a fun game that your entire family will enjoy and would make a GREAT family gift this holiday season. If you got teenagers in the family…I think it would make a great game for them too! You can purchase the game from Amazon for a really affordable price.

My son is 3 1/2 years old and I’m always looking for educational toys and games for him to play. These days the marketplace is swamped with toys & games that require batteries, make too much noise, cost too much money, and offer no educational value at all. As a parent, its really sad to see how much the toy & game industry has changed over the past decade.

Recently I received the My Little Farm Activity Set from SmartFelt Toys to review for you. This is an award-winning product, so I was really excited to receive it and give it to my son. The activity set was developed by a speech therapist and helps build early language skills. It’s for children ages 3 and up and comes with 32 felt pieces and a playhouse.
A fun & unique interactive, multi-sensory, four-panel felt board turns into a reversible 3D barn and farm. The activity set helps to promote:
* Receptive & Expressive Language
* Visual Attention & Processing
* Following Simple Directions
* Conversation and Dialogue
* Answering Who? What? Where? When? Why? How?
* Vocabulary Building
* Grammar Building
* Matching Skills
* Storytelling
Assembled My Little Farm measures: 13″ by 13″ by 15″
Flat measures: 52″ by 15″
Comes in a cardboard carrying case/storage box.
We received the activity set about 10 days ago and my son loves it. He’s a big fan of farms, animals, and toys that are different. By that I mean this…every time he gets out his farm activity set he can set it up a different way, put the animals in different places, etc. It’s not the same exact thing over and over. He can be creative when he’s playing.
As a parent I love that it doesn’t use batteries, doesn’t have flashing lights, doesn’t make annoying noise, etc. There are times where I want my son to sit down and play quietly and this activity set is exactly for those times. In addition, I like that its totally portable and he can take it to preschool, to grandma’s house, take it with us while traveling, etc. The entire activity set takes up very little room and is easy to store when not in use.
The farm barn is easy for him to put together thanks to the hook & loop closure. He can play with it assembled or flatten it down and play with it that way. I’ve been watching him and I think he prefers it flattened as I often see him laying or sitting on the floor playing with it in that way. All of the felt pieces stick nicely and are easy to remove when he wants to change them around. Everything is brightly colored too!
Suggested retail price is $39.99 each and recommended for ages 3 and older, My Little House and My Little Farm are available at SmartFelt Toys and Amazon. You can connect with SmartFelt Toys on Facebook too.
