Get Your #GameOnParty With Mattel - #12DaysOfChristmas

On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...

A Fun Family Games Night!

DaddyO and I have always enjoyed playing games, but unless we're stealing away a game of Scrabble late night, a lot of our game play with the kids has involved 'Hungry Hungry Hippos' and 'Candyland'. Not that those games are bad, not at all... but let's just say we're ready to move on!

That's why the new Mattel Gameology Facebook App makes finding games so easy. Answer a few questions and wham- your game type personality is known!

Turns out, I am a Socialies...

"For the Socialies, games are an event where winning comes second to making sure everyone has a good time. Their moves are unpredictable but in the end they get there. They are unorthodox players and yet against all odds, luck often ﬁnds them. This can be infuriating to other players, but Socialies have a way with words and can be counted on to make game night a great night." (FB Gameology Test)

What might a 'Socialies' find inside this box?

Apples to Apples, Angry Birds, UNO, Skip-Bo and Pictionary (both in cute packaging) ... enough gaming fun to get started on our way! We put out some snacks, stayed up a bit too late and got competitive. Well, not too competitive.

Though there were a few rounds of Angry Birds played, just sayin'.

We'll have years ahead of us enjoying these games. If you're looking for a great family gift to give this Christmas, a good old fashioned board game still pleases.
