I loved the walking, talking, humming Chameleon, and more importantly so did the children! It's for Ages 4+ and can be played by 2-4 players.
The idea is that you feed the chameleon your bugs, and whoever has the most bugs in his mouth when he stops moving is the winner. It can be tricky as some bugs can escape, so was a lot of fun!
You can buy the Chameleon Crunch for £19.99 from Amazon, Argos and Toys "R" Us. I would point out that it does need 3xAA batteries which are not included.

Whac-A-Mole Molehill Mania Game
We were given Molehill Mania to play with. It is designed for 2 players, for Ages 4+ , which is perfect for my 2. Though as you can see below, Scarlett enjoyed playing with her friend :)
The rules are fairly simple, there are 5 blue, 5 green and 1 red mole. You simply bash the sides with the mole-catching mallet to make them fly out, and the children have to collect them up. As soon as 1 player has 6 moles then their mallet shows its full. There are actually 3 levels of play. You can make it more detailed in that each player has to find their own colours, but at the moment they are enjoying just being the first to get to 6!
We've decided that the winner shouts "King of the Molehill"! Great fun, will be taking it to their cousins on Christmas day :)
You can buy Molehill Mania for £16.99. It's available at Amazon, Argos and Toys R Us.

Uno Roboto
I was very happy to be invited to review Uno Roboto. It is of course the classic Uno Card Game we know and love, but with the addition of a cheeky Robot who can mix things up a bit.
Before each game you can record the names of the players into the Robot, and some suggested forfeits, or you could add your own. Then, as you play, Roboto will randomly surprise you with specific commands for specific players - it really adds to the original game.
It is recommended as being suitable for Age 7+ however I have played it with my 5yo daughter who got it. As opposed to a normal suit of cards, these are played via numbers or colours, or clearly marked symbols to dictate the next move. Another big plus for me is that it is small enough to tidy away!!!!
Great fun and sure to be a family favourite! (If I can convince Jasper not to cheat that is!!!!)
Roboto is £24.99 and stockists include Argos and Amazon

HOT WHEELS® WALL TRACKS™ POWER TOWER® TRACK SET IS OFF THE WALL
We were very grateful to be sent this recently for Jasper to review. It really does what it says on the tin, and anything that keeps an 8yo boy entertained for more than 5 minutes is a big hit in my books! Even his daddy was impressed and had to be prized away from it!
At £39.99 it's a lot of kit for the money!!! Wish I'd hidden it away for Christmas now ;)!
HOT WHEELS® WALL TRACKS™ POWER TOWER® TRACK SET IS OFF THE WALL
Say “so long” to clutter on your carpet with Hot Wheels® Wall Tracks™ – a clever new way for your kids
to play with their favourite track sets – on the wall!
| Jasper is a huge fan, as am I since it's off the floor!!!!! |
With less mess on
the floor, there’s no need to spend your time building and breaking down track
sets when you need the space. And your
kids will love having their very own race track as a permanent design fixture
in their room.
Wall Tracks™ are
easy to use and come with a hanging template so you’ll know exactly how to set
them up. They stick fast to the wall
using 3M Command strips, which hold the track tight but are extremely safe and
easy to peel off with no damage to your walls.
New Wall Tracks™
Power Tower® takes the fun to
the next level with an amazing motorised lift that moves cars to the top of the
set for constant racing action. Each car
must speed through a series of terrifying obstacles including a slicing saw and
chomping monster to reach the end of the course.
Get caught in the jaws of the beast and your kid’s car will fall
through a trap door, while the ‘safe’ cars get transported back to the top of
the track to run another lap. With a
colourful background poster included, Wall Tracks™ Power Tower®
is the ultimate in frenzied racing action.
But beware; in the end, only one car will survive.
Priced at around RRP £39.99
Suitable for ages 5+
Includes one Hot Wheels vehicle
and one background poster.
Send your young drivers to www.teamhotwheels.co.ukwww.teamhotwheels.co.uk
to join in the fun
