Hasbro sent us the new Pie Face Showdown for free to play with and review. This is part of my #PlayLikeHasbro series. We had a great time and opinions are our own.

Smacking someone in the face with a shipped cream pie is as hilarious now as it always was. Now Hasbro has a few different versions of their popular game Pie Face. We checked out Pie Face Showdown where you go head to head with a family member, friend or rival.Each person taps their side of the game and that moves the hand towards their opponent. Whoever gets their hand over to their rival first ends up launching a handful of whipped cream in their face.Andrew and I had so much fun messing around with this game, especially covering each other’s faces with Whipped Cream. Lots of laughs with this game. You can see in our video below.

Laser Maze Jr.

We received a copy of Laser Maze Jr. from ThinkFun to play with and review. Opinions of the toy are 100% our own. If you have a young puzzler in your house then this is great for their Christmas gift list.

I was planning on playing this game with the kids last week when we were on our thanksgiving vacation but I didn’t open it before the trip and so didn’t put in the two AAA batteries. So, today I put the batteries into the game. Andrew and I went through the the easy and the medium puzzles together. I then tried the last one of the puzzles in the game and I found it pretty challenging myself. Andrew wanted to help with that one and he did. I liked how he began to pick up the way the game worked right away.

The great thing about this game, which is rated for six and up, is that the game can still be played by my four year old son. I was able to teach Andrew a bit about how light and lasers work. We were also able to talk a bit about angles and mirrors. Of course, I had to keep reminding him not to stick his fingers directly onto the mirrors. I got a bit frustrated after the millionth time telling him this but it was still fun overall. Continue reading Review: Laser Maze Jr. from ThinkFun
