Cute and Squeezable – The Squeezamals Freeze ‘N’ Squeeze Game

The Kids with Squeezamals Freeze N Squeeze Game

The kids love the Squeezamals. They are the cutest little ball shaped animals that are so squishy and squeezable. Well, now they have a new game that uses Squeezamals called Squeezamals Freeze ‘N’ Squeeze Game. We received a copy a few weeks back to try out and play with. You can pick the the game at Target. They have this very cute exclusive Rainbow unicorn figure in the game. For some reason ours is simply pink and not furry and rainbow like the exclusive Target one. You can see that and all the pieces of the game below.

The object of the game is to not be the one who has to pay for the banana split sundae. How do you avoid this? You can’t end up with the Squeezamals character when the player making the sundae calls time. We played this as a family and it was quite fun. I learned that Eva likes to whip the Squeezamals character at you at 100 mph when you are 1 foot away. Being the person with the spinner who is making the sundae can be never-wracking as everyone is trying to throw this cute character around you as you scramble to get the right pieces together. There were a lot of laughs while we played the game, though. It was pretty fun to play. Here is the offical word on the game.

Squeezamals Freeze ‘N’ Squeeze Game is an entertaining twist on the classic game of hot potato. Players take turns making a yummy treat for their Squeezamal to enjoy. The player caught holding the plush when it’s time to eat must pay for the treat! Each game features an exclusive Squeezamal! Colors and styles may vary.

Help Kevin Outwit the Wet Bandits in the Home Alone Game

Andrew as Kevin from Home Alone

In Home Alone little Kevin McCallister has to defend his home from the Wet Bandits. Some pretty hilarious hi-jinks ensue as Kevin uses everything at his disposal to thwart the bad guys. Well, Big G Creative has attempted to capture the action in a Home Alone board game for 2-4 players. They sent us a copy well before their November 4th launch at Target stores. The game is exclusive to Target. Unfortunately , we hadn’t had the time before now to play. I took the game with us on the Thanksgiving holiday on the Cape. Andrew is a big fan of board games and he and I tried it out. The game is for ages 8 and up but Andrew is good at games so even though he just turned 7 he could play.

Playing Home Alone with Andrew

We set up the game and went over the rules and how to play. It took a little bit to really figure things out but once we did I could see how certain strategies could be applied. Andrew played as Kevin and I as the Wet Bandits. He really wanted to get me with the paint bucket over and over. Unfortunately for him, he hardly ever rolled a paint bucket. Although, in the end he still won the game. I came up $300 short on the loot. Continue reading Help Kevin Outwit the Wet Bandits in the Home Alone Game
