Cosmic Catch is Out of this World!!!

A magical talking ball that ‘knows your throws’ is the centerpiece of this fast-moving, simple and fun game!  Players each wear a band around their hand and attempt to throw the ball as directed by, well, THE BALL!  Several variations of the game keeps things entertaining and exciting, too!  Play with as few as two and up to eight for a real rip roarin’ good time.  This fast paced game is sure to entice even the couchiest potato from their roost.  Great to play indoors or out thanks to the soft, nerf texture of the ball!  Heads up for Cosmic Catch!  Catch yours today and get in the game!


 

4Real 4Sure!

Woohoo! We are just tickled to tell you about an awesome new find in the grocery store!  4Real foods offers SIX different yummy varieties of convenient kids meals made from good stuff!  The mac+cheese was this team’s favorite, but the cheesy pizza quesadilla and spaghetti rings were a huge hit as well.  Also try the tangy turkey pepperoni or cheese pizza and the beef ravioli.  All the meals come in kid attractive packaging with an ‘honest to goodness’ pledge- no artificial nothin’ here! PLUS, they are all created by top chefs with an eye on keeping sodium, fat and calories in check!  Check out their super cool website, too at www.4realfoods.com – be sure to click on the label lingo section for tons of scoop on weird sounding ingredients (hint: not ALL are bad for us!!).  Look for these pale orange boxes in the refrigerated section (not freezer!) near the prepackaged meats.

Finally, a quick prepackaged meal that will keep the team on track!  Way to go, 4Real!

 

SUPER game!!!

Wild Planet’s Hyperdash is a superfun, supercool, super easy way to get your team moving!  This simple yet thrilling game can be played indoors and out with anywhere from 1-8 players- individually or in teams!  Rock on!  We love all 5 variations of the game but the basic drill is this:  you have 6 colored disks that you can set up wherever you like (hint: the farther apart they are, the more intense the fun- I mean, workout!), then a player holds the controller which directs them which target to go to next.  The controller must be placed on top of the disk to register which target is being hit.  It also times players- the fastest time wins!  Woo Hoo! Simple. Fun. FAST!!  You can even play against yourself and try to beat your own personal record.  There are games that involve colors, numbers, addition and sequencing, too!  Awesome fun for athletes and non-athletes alike!  Click the link below to check out Hyperdash now!
