Mattel Sponsored Mom and Me Game Day

Our momstown Mississauga mamas and kids were treated to a very special event this month at our Mattel Sponsored Game day. Kids 3 + and their moms were lucky enough to be able to try 5 new games. 

There was something for every child and their interest level. Games teach  pre-school kids life skills like how to take turns, sharing, waiting (patience) and how to have fun.    


Chipmunk Choppers was a fan favourite with all the kids. The chipmunk choppers themselves are so much fun to use, they had all the kids excited as they chomped letters off the tree to match with the word cards. Practicing skills like colour and letter recognition were natural in the quest to chomp more letters.  


Angry Birds Knock on Wood was another great game. Fitting together the pieces of wood to make structures for the piggies was just as exciting as launching the birds. 



The tractor with hay-bale launcher proved the highlight during Go Piggy Go! This game had some more complex elements introducing simple strategy perfect for teaching game play and focus skills to the older kids. 

Uno Moo inspired some pretty creative sounds as we encouraged the kids to use their imagination and voices to enhance the game play.  



Parrot Pile Up required the children to slow down and really focus on the best placement of the objects. It also required a steady hand and concentration to complete each turn. 



Our moms and kids loved the games from Mattel and we will definitely be making Game Day a regular event on our calendar using these great pre-school offerings. The moms were thrilled to be able to take home a copy of Uno as a gift.
