At Sweet Suite I ad the good fortune of coming home with two Lightseekers Starter Packs (Affiliate Link). I have worked with the PR rep for TOMY for a number of years and he set one of each pack aside for me. I was really thrilled to finally play this game. Then I got home and time passed and I got swamped with so many things. I kept seeing posts from the Lightseekers Official site and Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. I saw the toys in Toys R Us and on Amazon.com. More time passed and I did not get to playing the game. I had no excuse, too. I had opened the Starter Packs in New York so that I could carry everything home. the boxes are huge! I even picked up some accessories at Toys R Us to use including a Starter Deck for the Tech element (Affiliate Link), a Spinblade 3000 (Affiliate Link) and a Flynamo for my Tyrax character, Jax. There is a whole heck of a lot that goes along with this game and so I made the video below to explain it the best I know how and to give you a look at how everything works.

Lightseekers is a Toys to Life Game, but it is more than that. Lightseekers are action figures, but they are more than that. Lightseekers are Augmented Reality, but they are more than that. Lightseekers is a Collectible Card Game but again, they are more than that. There are so many facets to Lightseekers and it is only continuing to grow and expand. See what I mean in the video below.

Thank you to General Mills for the Personalized Bag and Cereal. While I am under no obligation to talk about this I did want to give a shout out and thank you. I opened the package last night when I returned home from Blogger Bash. Inside was a Thirty-One Bag that was personalized with BenSpark on it. This is a cooler bag that is large enough to hold two -Liter bottles of Soda standing up. Perfect for packing lunches for the whole family. Also in the package were a couple of General Mills cereals and a recipe book filled with great ideas for Summer treats.

I let the kids watch me unpack my bags from Blogger Bash and then showed them all the games and toys that they would get a chance to open on some future videos. They were very excited about the Hatchimals that I received yesterday. We actually filmed more later in the day.

After unpacking the kids and Allison went to see a play through the Tri-Boro Youth Theater. Our friend’s kids were in it. I went out and picked up my comic books. It had been a while since I had been out shopping for those. I came home with a stack of them.

We shot a couple of video unboxings and then decided to watch Disney’s The BFG. Neither of the kids were interested. Andrew fell asleep while Eva read a book. I worked on yesterday’s video and Allison watched the movie and knit. I’m going to have to swing over to my parent’s house to borrow the Back to the Future DVDs for the next time we have time for a movie. It probably won’t be anytime soon because next week begins four weeks of camps for Eva.
