Mama Manifesto: Friday Giveaway: Curious George Discovery Beach Game

Our next giveaway is a the new Curious George Discovery Beach™ Game !
Search the seashore for hidden treasures! I Can Do That Games! is a company that has already wowed us with their Dr. Suess inspired games that our kids LOVE. But now, everyone's favorite monkey is the star of the show in these fun games.
Hit the beach with your favorite monkey for a seashore scavenger hunt adventure! Flip a card to reveal your challenge. Then search for sea creatures and colorful treasures hidden below five secret beach locations. Can you find a match? But watch out for waves! If the game spinner lands on a wave, shake the box and the treasures will slide and hide in new locations. Find the most treasures to win! It takes all the fun of "I Spy" that we all play with our kids non-stop and adds the aspect of getting to shake up the sand to see what will be revealed, and with NO MESS to clean up.
Ages 3-8; MSRP $12.99; Available January 2009 exclusively at Target and Target.com

Game sounds interesting.

I would play Cranium. It has a variety of games within a game and I like that.

Is the close date incorrect?
Kelly @ Love WellMarch 20, 2009 1:30 PM
We don't have adult friends right now -- a combination of frequent moves and young children -- so our favorite game for game night these days is Hullabaloo. It's a Cranium game for kids, it's super simple and yet very fun. (And it's NOT a board game, which is great for young kids who have the wiggles.)

That said, we love games and play a lot of them. We got Uno Flash for Christmas, and that's another fun one.

I love Balderdash -- the definitions are hilarious! :)
SarahMarch 21, 2009 5:43 PM
I would play Apples to Apples...love that game!

The game looks like it would be a lot of fun!
We usually play bingo for a quarter a game. Whoever wins gets the quarters. Thank you!

We are all about the classics. Trivial Pursuit, anyone? Uno, dominoes, Mille Bornes (my personal fave!) and nothing's better than a rousing game of Pictionary!

If my hubby and I want a game night with just the two of us, we sit around and play Boggle. What old fogies we must be! But we both enjoy competitive word games!

Now that we have a 2-year-old and a 3-month-old, we haven't had game night in quite a while... however, we used to have friends over to play Cranium every week or so before everyone had kids. When my brother and I teamed up, we always won!

Thanks for the giveaway, my daughter is a Curious George fanatic and she would really love this game!
