Stratego Board Game and Stomple Board Game Review and Giveaway

Recently I was allowed to investigate the company Spin Master Games, and let me tell you they checked full of fun and adventure for those that love board games and quality time with someone. I was given the opportunity to review 2 games. Stratego, a new one, and Stomple.
 The Stratego Board Game has been a favorite of my family for a long time. And now Spin Master games has come out with a new Stratego. This one is on a distant planet with different armies and a different board.

The description for the new Stratego- ON A DISTANT PLANET, TWO ARMIES CLASH. WHO WILL BE VICTORIOUS? You command an army of Soldiers, machines, scouts, and miners. Devise a plan and deploy your troops. Use strategic attack and clever deception to break through your opponent's line, but beware of bombs and enemy spies. Capture the flag, and the victory is yours! This is in commemoration of the 50 years Stratego has been out. All in all this game is super fun and easy to play. I first started playing when I was about 10 with my younger siblings starting as young as 6, we all still love to play the game as we have family night every Friday.

The next game I was allowed to review (Stomple) is a new game to me. It is a strategic marble stomping game, what more could you ask for?  The description for Stomple- Outwit your opponents by stomping their marbles before they stomp yours. Outmaneuver by leaving their stomper trapped with no escape. Outstomp the competition and you win! The more you play the more you learn the strategy behind the stomping! Once again an A+ game from Spin Master Games.

Kidlandia Review!

Hello Agents!

How is everyone today? I am sitting inside cooling off from playing a couple games of volleyball in the backyard with our family. The team that lost the first set has to make breakfast for our parents in the morning and the team that won the second set gets to sleep in an extra half hour tomorrow. Really fun!

I have been using my new pillow case that I received from Kidlandia...

Really neat! I also let my Mom choose something. She also decided on a Pillow Case. It is really fun going in and being able to design your own products. We each designed our own and we added little areas for family members - for my sister there is a ranch, for my brother it is a ship in Hawaii, for my little sister there is a Space Center (she is really interested in them right now!), etc. You can add buildings, trees, flowers, vehicles, Kidlandia Kreechurs and more. Here are some more pictures our Pillowcases...

There is one problem with this Pillow Case - my sister tries stealing it! Yep!

She loves "borrowing" my pillow.

Kidlandia is a great company. They have so many products and kids love being able to personalize on item themselves. You can also create a online "Kidlandia Kingdom". Alot of fun!

I received no monetary compensation for this review.

Madelaine Chocolates! Great Mother's Day Gift!

Hello!

How are all my Fellow Agents? I have been investigating Madelaine Chocolates. They have some items that would make great Mother's Day Gifts. They sent me some of their Chocolate Roses, Chocolate Tulips, and one of their Chocolate Hearts. These are taste soooo great!

Here is a little bit about Madelaine Chocolates... "Established in 1949, we’ve dedicated ourselves to perfecting the superior taste and quality of our chocolate. Our belief that everyone should be able to afford great tasting chocolate is what drives our commitment to our customers, and ensures that we never compromise on flavor or quality.

Located in Far Rockaway, Queens, we're proud to say that as an American family-owned and run company, our chocolates have been made solely in New York and have been part of the American family life for 60 years. From holidays and birthdays, to Easter, Valentines and graduations - The Madelaine Chocolate Company has always been there.

Using the finest quality chocolate, innovative shapes and unique Italian foils, we’re proud to help make every moment special.

Madelaine — Sharing Every Chocolate Moment, since 1949"

First are the Chocolate Roses. These are so neat! They are little chocolates shaped like Roses on the tope of a green stem. Wrapped around the chocolate Rose is red foil. Check them out!

Aren't they pretty?!?! They tasted so good!

Second are the Chocolate Tulips. These are also on green stems with colored foil wrapped around the tulip shaped chocolates. Except these have spring colored foil around them.

First my Dad tried it (the Chocolate Tester!:). Can you tell he liked it? :D

So excited about the Chocolate!

Sooooo good!

A vase of Tulips (Chocolate Tulips that is!:).

Lastly is the Red Satin Heart Signature Box. This is Solid Chocolate! It is a Heart Shaped Chocolate in a Red Satin Wrapper. So pretty!

Everyone also had to have a bite of this. This is Solid Chocolate!

These would make a great Mother's Day Gift. And they have so many other items! Any Mother I know LOVES chocolate. Doesn't everyone?!? She will have to make sure to keep it from her children though! :D

Madelaine Chocolates is going to send one of my Fellow Agents a Box of Chocolate Roses! Wow! What a great giveaway.

Hawaiian Kettle Style Potato Chips Review and Giveaway

I was recently allowed to review the Hawaiian Kettle Style Potato Chips so on one of our most recent family nights I pulled em out and stuck them out on the table for all to enjoy.
The Sweet Maui Onion was probably the favorite of the night with the Mango Habanero coming in a close second, and Wasabi for the third.
Hawaiian Kettle Style Potato Chips comes in a variety of flavors including Original, Luau BBQ, Wasabi, Mango Habanero and the Sweet Maui Onion.
Here's what the company says about the chips.
First off the Original- "Real potatoes sliced and slow cooked in the old Hawaiian tradition in a select blend of oils for a crispy, crunchy potato chip with just the perfect pinch of salt."
The Sweet Maui Onion- "Discover a new world of flavor when you crunch into Hawaiian Kettle Style Potato Chips. The crispy, golden chips are cooked to perfection, then seasoned with just the right amount of Sweet Maui onion flavor. We have combined only the finest ingredients to create a unique chip that captures the freshness and authenticity of the islands.
The Luau BBQ Style Chips- "The front of the bag boasts Sweet and Spicy but many customers say it is sweet and sassy, either way your taste buds will jump for joy when you bite into this delectable flavor. For something fun, pile these chips high inside your next burger. It's really good!"
The Wasabi Style Kettle Chips- "Discover a new world of flavor when you crunch into Hawaiian Kettle Style Wasabi flavored potato chips. Our chips are cooked to perfection and topped with the finest ingredients. We combined the zest of wasabi root with a kick of horseradish and thick sliced potato chips to create this ultimate island delight."
The Sweet Maui Onion Rings- "The irresistible taste you love from Sweet Maui Onion chips is now available in a zesty ring snack. These light and crispy rings are cooked to golden perfection and seasoned with just the right amount of Sweet Maui Onion flavor to satisfy the most discriminating plate."
The Luau Barbecue Rings- "Light as a breeze in your hand but packing a rushing wave of flavor: it's the crispy Hawaiian Luau BBQ ring snack! These rings have the Sweet and Zesty BBQ punch of our famous Hawaiian Kettle Chips, but it's carried on a light, curling ring. Stack 'em up; wear 'em on your fingers; eat 'em on the go! Hawaiian Luau BBQ rings give you all the flavor you want when you're ready to catch the next wave."
And last but not least the Mango Habanero Style Chips- "Spice up your snack experience when you crunch into Hawaiian Kettle Style Chips with Mango Habanero. Inspired by Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of fire, these chips will really heat things up! Seasoned with the fiery heat of habanero peppers and the sweetness of mangos, these chips will spark a fire in all your snacking occasions."

One of my readers will win a surprise pack from Hawaiian Kettle style Potato Chips.
