Review and Giveaway: Hasbro Family Game CLOSED

Be sure to mark your calendars for Hasbro's First Official Family Game Night!! It will be taking place on Wednesday September 23rd and offers you a great chance to spend some quality time with your family.


In hopes of bringing families together through laughter and games, Hasbro wants to encourage everyone to take a break from their hectic lives to reconnect. And, for families on a budget, National Family Game Night provides an opportunity to share an affordable night in.


There is a game available for every age. Personally, I love Trivial Pursuit! Wyatt's favorite is Candy Land. Hasbro has even released special edition family night games, so be on the lookout for them.


Hasbro was nice enough to send my family Sweet Celebration Candy Land and Spongebob Squarepants Operation for our Family Game Night fun! Wyatt was so excited when the box came in the mail that he was ready to play that night.


We decided to start with Candy Land, since Operation needed batteries. Wyatt really liked this new Sweet Celebration version, especially since he could design the board. I would suggest popping all the pieces out the night before, because it took around 40 minutes for my husband to assemble the game. Also, we were not exactly sure of all the rules, but that did not take any of the fun away.


Spongebob Operation is a new twist on an old classic. I remember loving this game as a child and Wyatt thinks it is super fun. The fact that he loves Spongebob didn't hurt either.LOL


In case you need a reason for a Family Game Night, check out Wyatt when he played Spongebob Operation for the first time. The jump is so priceless.LOL



So, take a break from your duties, and just sit down with your family and have some fun!! Play your favorite classic or let your kids pick out a new edition, either way you are sure to build some great memories.


To help you get your game night started, Hasbro has offered to give two lucky readers a game. The winners will receive either Sweet Celebration Candy Land or Spongebob Operation. For your chance to win, just follow the rules below.
