Blunders Game Review and GIVEAWAY

Product to Review: Blunders Game
 Product Information: Blunders board game makes learning manners good fun for the whole family!


There is nothing quite as embarrassing for parents than the moments when their children transform from angelic creatures into bad-mannered hooligans. Whether you get a call from school about a toy sharing incident, experience a tantrum in a restaurant or store, or catch your child breaking house rules about burping, nose picking or worse, getting your children to behave all the time requires a lot of work and constant reminders.

A new game called Blunders makes it easy for parents to incorporate lessons about good manners into a daily bonding activity that is fun for the entire family. Blunders  teaches children ages 5 + about social and dining etiquette as they try to help Bobby, Brenda, Billy, and Becky Blunder improve their manners.

Game play is simple – to start, choose your character, decide if you want to play a longer round with one dice or a shorter round using two dice, determine who will go first and then begin learning good manners! 

Each Blunders game includes:
  • 300 questions in 3 card decks to teach social and dining etiquette: “Dine with the Blunders,” “Play with the Blunders,” and “At Home with the Blunders”.
  •  6 types of interactive, funny, and challenging types of questions: Charade, multiple choice, true/false, scenario, reward, and consequence.
  • 1 beautiful, hand-illustrated game board with “seek and find” objects.
  • 1 Meet the Blunders story booklet that cleverly introduces the Blunders’ characters and their neighbors, the Mannerlys.
  •  9 reward tokens
  •  9 table setting cards, which players use to learn how to properly set the table.
  • 4 pawns of the Blunder children: Becky, Bobby, Brenda, and Billy Blunder.



By playing Blunders, children will learn how to have polite table manners and set the table properly, introduce themselves with confidence, use nice manners at school and in all social settings, and how to treat others with respect, empathy, and kindness. Players will also experience lessons on how to be a gracious guest and host, have polite telephone manners, show respect and kindness to adults, peers, and siblings, not bully, tease, or gossip and most importantly they will understand the benefits of having good manners.

 

Blunders retails for $24.95 and can be purchased at select Toys R Us and Books A Million stores as well as specialty retailers nationwide. For more information and to find a store near you please visit www.blundersmania.com.
