‘Tis the season for family holiday gatherings! For some of us, it’s a relaxing and joyous time to get together with beloved family members both near and far. But for many of us, holiday gatherings try our patience and put our coping skills to the test, especially when it comes to the ultimate family tradition: the games people play.
Whether your family loves a friendly game of Charades, a competitive round of Pictionary, or plain old Texas Hold ‘em, there’s always the cheating brother-in-law, the overly sensitive sister, and the dad who just has to win.
So tell us about those games you play - who wins, who loses, and who sits in the corner and pouts. Hopefully that’s not you!
This week, we’ve teamed up with Electronic Arts, who recently released an array of fun, family-focused video games just in time for those family holiday gatherings - including Littlest Pet Shop, Boogie SuperStar, Boom Blox, and Hasbro Family Game Night (a collection of six classic board games), just to name a few! Whether you join in the fun or sneak off to take an overdue nap while others are playing, there is something for everyone from the kids to the grandparents!
Here’s how to participate:
Write a post on your blog about the games you play at family holiday gatherings. Post anytime this weekend -
Today, December 5 to Sunday, December 7 and include links to:
1) http://www.ea.com
2) http://blog.parentbloggers.com
Make sure to send your blog post link to parentbloggers@gmail.com and we’ll round them up right here - so give your post a creative title!
