*This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Sportime USA. They are sponsoring me to attend Blog Her 2013. All opinions are 100% mine. Last weekend was my son's tenth birthday and my husband and I spent a lot of time checking out different venues that cater to children's birthday parties in the New York Tri-state area.

Jungle Speed Board Game Review and Giveaway

We always try to choose games that will challenge us and make us think as well as allow us to have a lot of fun. It is very important to make time to have this type of interaction with our families.

Some cards appear to be identical but really … [Read more...]
