Inside this box, it comes with a Word Bandit machine, playing board, two playing pieces, sand timer, sticker sheet and instructions. It requires minimal assembly by sticking the stickers onto the Word Bandit machine which takes no time at all.
Last year, Drumond Park launched this brand new Gee Whizz which is jam packed with fascinating, easily accessible and confidence-giving introduction to magical tricks and activities. This set is for aged five onwards and definitely inspires the little minds with the potential to becoming a trickster.
This year, we were very lucky to work with quite a lot of big brands on board games. We love board game in this house especially as they are a great way to get everyone together to play. Also throughout the whole year, I have had some great giveaways on some superb board games. This is my list of favourite board games that both our family and friends play repeatedly.
This new electronic Og on the Bog game from Drumond Park is wonderfully gross and gives new meaning to toilet humour. The aim of the game is to steal as many loo rolls as possible before Og lets rip with a humungous fart and blows his Bog to bits. This is suitable for ages 5 and above and for 2 to 4 players.
This Autumn, Drumond Park is bringing you a new and truly ‘booty-ful’ electronic action game, Rattle Me Bones. A scary skeleton of wily ol’ Cap’n Boney is waiting to catch you out! This is suitable for ages 5 and above for 2 – 4 players.
Sshh! Don’t Wake Dad is an electronic board game from Drumond Park. This is suitable for ages 5 and above and for 2 to 4 players. This is a highly entertaining and exciting game. All the children and adults love this hilarious board game!
Drumond Park have recently launched their new simple action game, just in time for the summer! This Barbecue Party is suitable for ages 4 and above for 2 – 4 players. It is portable so you can bring it out to play on holiday. This is a lovely mini game that is fun but also great to train children’s fine motor skills! Using tongs makes the game quite challenging! It is all down to their fine motor skills to win the game!
Rapidough is the original game of modelling charades that has recently been thoroughly refreshed to provide many hours of fun with family and friends! This is suitable for ages 8 onwards and for 4 or more players. The more the merrier. This is great to play during an adult party too!
LOGO Grab is a new game from Drumond Park which is a gripping rollercoaster of a game where you simply ‘roll, spot and grab’ the cards. The objective is to be the first to collect two sets of three coloured big brand cards featuring well-known products as diverse as Pot Noodle, After Eight, Heinz Baked Beans, a KitKat, The Volkswagen Beetle, Marmite and Gale’s Honey. It can be played by a group of teams or 2 to 4 players and for aged 8 and upwards.
Articulate for Kids is so far one of my children’s and also my favourite games from Drumond Park. The game is very simple to follow and very fun to play! It can be played by a group of children by themselves or with grown-ups and is suitable for 4 to 20 players and for aged 6 and upwards.
Drumond Park Pumpaloons is a pumping race game which is great for indoors or outdoors. It is suitable for 2 players aged four onwards.
Children dash to their pumps and start puffing up the two lovable, colourful, clown-like wobblies – Stripeyloon and Spottyloon – until they are towering firmly upright. There are many ways to do it! You can stomp on the pump with your foot, kneel down and push it furiously with your hands, or even sit on the pump and bounce up and down, as fast as you can go! The winner is the first one to pump up the character! It may look big but it only takes 2 – 3 minutes to blow it up.
Another amazing game from Drumond Park! This Tooth Fairy game is magical and all the children who played this loved it! It is for 2 – 4 players and suitable from age 5 onwards.
This Drumond Park’s Dino Bite RRP £19.99 is a thrilling game for 2 – 4 players and from age 4 onwards. To win this game, you have to be the last player to not get caught by the Dino! Beware there is lots of screaming, especially from me! Yes, I get so excited and start screaming… the kids all think I am mad!
This Drumond Park’s Don’t Laugh is a hilarious and highly popular ‘laugh-out-loud’ board game with RRP £19.99 and is for 2 – 4 players and suitable from age 8 to adult. We played with our friends and their children who are as young as six.
