Say Anything Game: This game is recommend for ages 13 and up and take 3-8 players. You can learn how to play this game in about 2 minutes and it will take approximately 35 minutes to play. You ask a question from one of the cards that you draw. Every player writes an answer and turns it face-up. You will then secretly choose your favorite answer. Every player will then try to guess which one you picked.

Wits & Wagers Game: This game is recommend for ages 10 and up and takes 4-20 players. You can learn how to play the game in about 2 minutes and it will take approximately 25 minutes to play. You will ask a question from the card that you draw and everyone writes down an answer. The players then place their bets…which guess is closest? If you are feeling confident in your answer…you can even bet on yourself!

Wit & Wagers Family Edition: This game is recommend for ages 8 and up and takes 3-10 players. You can learn how to play this game in about 2 minutes and it will take approximately 20 minutes to play. One person will draw a card and ask one of the fun questions contained on the card. The game comes with a dry erase board & markers…you place your meeple (game piece) on the answer you want…the person who comes the closest wins that question. This game is really great for both parents & children to play.

Shelly’s Review: I received the Say Anything Game to try out with my family for our product review. We sat down to play it and had 4 players. This game is a real hoot…the questions are fun & really make you think about your answer. We had a great time playing it…matter of fact, we played it twice since I received it! I am sure it is going to be one of our family’s favorite games now! Just a note…I feel that this game is perfectly suited for adults to play on their own (without the kiddos) but you can certainly have a family game night & include the kids too!

Chris’s Review: I received the Wits & Wagers Family Edition Game to play with my family. We had 5 players (2 adults and 3 teenagers) and had a blast playing it. Keeping score was really easy since they include everything that you need in with the game. For family game night…all that you need is this game & a big bowl of popcorn and then let the fun and laughter begin.

Overall Impression: These games are very family friendly and will provide hours of playing fun & laughter. Our order arrived super quickly to our homes and it was well packaged. The games are affordable and would make a fabulous holiday and/or birthday gift for someone on your gift-giving list.

Product For Review Details: The Create Your Own Pop Up Books Kit from Creativity For Kids, Price $19.95, For Ages 5 and up.

My Review: I received a wonderful craft kit that I was recently able to review with my 2 nephews age 8 and 10. You see….both of my nephews are into art & crafts and are very creative so I was really excited to sit down with them last weekend and open up this kit. The kit comes with 2 hardcover books…one is about 8.5″ in size and the second one is a little smaller than that one so there was one book for each of them to complete. The kit comes with stickers, markers and some design ideas to get you started. C decided his book would be about nature and kids and D decided his would be about imaginery monsters so I knew I had my hands full with 2 very creative little boys. Even though they had thought about their designs ahead of time…trust me, they changed along the way. Everything in the kit was high quality, easy to use and the instructions/ideas were easy to follow. As the afternoon grew on, the boys added some of their own artwork, stickers and other craft supplies that I had here to the mix which made it even more fun for them. This kit kept them totally entertained for over 3 hours!!!

Overall Opinion: The boys and I loved this kit…I loved that it came with some supplies and we added more of our own things to it to expand their creativity even more. Children love to be creative, to make up & tell their own stories and what a great way to preserve their very ‘own’ story in a cute pop-up book that they made themself. My nephews are 8 & 10 and I did have to help them with making their books so I do think adult help will be needed with some children. Overall….a great creative craft kit to sit down and do with children…both boys and girls would enjoy it! Growing Tree Toys has tons of great kits and items for children so make sure you head on over to their web site for your shopping needs *hint* the holidays are coming!

I would like to thank Growing Tree Toys for sending us the fabulous pop-up book kit for our product review. It was really a lot of fun to sit down with the boys and spend a few hours with them making the 2 books. I highly recommend this company and their products to you.
