I received a sample for review. All opinions are my own.
We’re well into our second month of summer and it definitely has taken some creativity on my part to keep my son entertained. I’ll admit we’ve probably watched way more TV than I’d like, but sometimes we both just need a little break. Thankfully there are some great toys found at?HABA?that don’t involve screen time or even need batteries.
Spielstabil’s 6-Piece Sailboat Sand Toy Set?is great for trips to the beach or even playing in the sandbox. This set, including a?pail, sieve, shovel, watering can and 2 sand molds, all fits inside of the?transparent bag, making it easy to tote your child’s sand toys around. Each of the 6 pieces are brightly colored and incredibly durable as well as?PVC-free, phthalate-free, and made from BPA-free plastic.
One thing my son has really enjoys?is playing board games. I’ve started stocking up on them this summer because they’re great when it’s too hot to play outside or when the afternoon rain comes. He loved?the game?Animal Upon Animal?made by HABA and given that it’s?celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, this game is obviously a .
In this game, it’s a race to be the first one to stack all of your animals. Depending on what comes up when you roll the dice, you can stack one or two animals, give one of your animals to another player to stack, or to add to the base of the alligator. Of course, you don’t want to be the one to knock over any animals or you’ll have to take some of them.
There are so many different toys found at HABA that are entertaining without the need of TV or screens. Both the sand toy set and the Animal Upon Animal game were huge hits in our house and have helped to ease some of our summer boredom.
