games to beat summer boredom, from blue orange games

It’s been one week out of school and I’m seeing all across social media how kids are already talking about how they are bored…and parents are frustrated that their kids can’t figure out something to do. So, with that in mind, I wanted to share with you all some fun games you can pick up quite easily to aid in the summer boredom slump. We have had a few games from Blue Orange Games in the past, so I thought it would be fun to highlight  some “new to us” as well as some oldie but goodies!

Spot it! Disney Frozen Olaf in Summer
Ages 3+
Stay cool in the sun with our newest game – Spot it! featuring the cute and lovable Olaf! Kids will be captivated spotting Olaf and matching his favorite parts of summer among numbers and familiar shapes. Parents will love to see their children learning numbers and building skills in speech and language. Spot it! is an award winning game where there is one and only one match between any two cards. This is the magical formula that has made Spot it! the #1 card game for children and families. The Frozen phenomena is still growing with the animated short “Frozen Fever” in theaters, and the Frozen 2 sequel currently in the works.  Spot it! Frozen Olaf  is definitively the must-have game of the year!

 

Dr. Eureka
Ages 8+
Be the maddest scientist around! Dr. Eureka, designed by the award winning Roberto Fraga, is a tactile problem solving and brainteasing matching game. Players pass colorful molecules between test tubes to match the pattern on a challenge card, building both cognitive processing and dexterity skills. Play it alone or at a party with friends, Dr. Eureka is your best bet for some crazy molecule juggling fun! Keekee the Flipping Monkey
Ages 3+
This sustainably made wooden game has little learners finding out just how many balls Keekee can juggle. The look on kids’ faces as Keekee sways to and fro is priceless! Keekee the Rocking Monkey develops dexterity while teaching the principles of weight and balance.

Fast Flip
Ages 7+
Play with your food in this fruit flipping game! Fast flip is a fast-paced matching race that develops high level visual processing skills while you quickly spot and count different fruits on the cards. Our special formula ensures that there is always only one solution between cards, creating a fun and addicting game for all. Play with the cards alone or mix up your game with included tokens for more exciting and exhilarating fun.
