ORB Morph Mixer Party!!


ORB Morph Mixer Party

Brought to us by Morph Toy and Tryazon!

Morph is a formable, moldable ...fluffy...foamy....stuff. We had so much fun making random things with this, and then making new things. 

Morph comes in 6 great colors, and can be MIXED to create new colors.

From the package, it's in a bit of a crumbled form. 

Crumbled in the bags

Then you work with Morph to form and shape it, it become softer and similar to a clay. But, Morph is super light, almost weighs nothing! You can mold it, shape it and form it; it holds it's shape!


Morph never dries out! This means you can create things, save them...and re-make them into something new. The more you pull and stretch Morph, the fluffier it becomes, adding air in between the "mini spheres" gives the Morph a look of fluff! 



Smash it all together for easy clean up! You don't even have to put it in a bag - it won't dry out!

Fluffy!

Stretch to add air, and make fluffy!

Here are some of the items we created:

Rubber Ducky, Pink Starfish

Flower

Bus/Truck

Flowers

Boats

 We actually had a competition with the boats. I challenged the adults to make a boat, that would float AND hold weight inside the boat.  Hint: The bigger, the better. The purple boat won, as we could put so many items inside before it tipped over. 

Mixed colors to make this funny guy on a jet ski!


The guests of this party were very happy to get time to play with this Morph "stuff", using it to make and remake all kinds of things. This will make a great Christmas gift!

A RoosterFin Game Night! (Great gift ideas!)



Hi again everyone! Last week, we had a game night featuring 3 games from RoosterFin! #roosterfingames

RoosterFin Games, founded by Joe Balcuk, are teacher created games that are simple, family friendly and easy to learn. 


The three games we tried are: Ninja Squirrels, Wizard Roll and Bouncing Bots. All games are rated for ages 7 and up. 

So, let's go! First we started with Bouncing Bots....

The Bots!

Bouncing bots is a great game for kids around 7 -10 years of age (maybe a bit older, too!). The goal is to "bounce" the plastic Bot characters onto the platform. Then you score points based on where those bots land on the platform. Very simple and easy to learn, it may take some practice to get those Bots to bounce properly - which makes it even more fun.

Next up, Ninja Squirrels! This game is VERY competition oriented! The goal of this game, which is suitable for all ages, even adults; is to get those nuts! 


Ninja Squirrels!

Character cards, not game play cards. 

It's similar to the card game we used to call "War", from years back. You get a stack of cards and everyone takes a turn flipping the card over to reveal a squirrel (game cards shown in the pic below). When a player plays a card that has a squirrel wearing an entire matching outfit (colors are green, blue, purple and orange) - you grab that color nut as fast as you can. Whoever grabs it first, wins that nut. Then you continue playing until the nuts have all been claimed.

And the final game of the night...Wizard Roll!

Wizard Roll.

Wizard Roll is a bit more complicated than the other two games, but easy enough for kids to figure out. The goal here is to collect the ingredients on the spell card, to complete the spell. Each spell is worth various points and you play (roll of the dice decides which spell ingredients you get each turn) until someone gets the winning amount of points. 
 
Reference Card, to SAY the spell. 
The spells are simple to understand, using tiles (purple, yellow and blue) and the elements are fire (red) and water (blue).

 This was a fun game, and very clever! 
Spell Cards. 

Woooooo! 

These games are made specifically to help kids learn AND families to have fun. Each game comes with instructions and there are videos on how to play available from their webpage: RoosterFin Games! 

An added note - I must say this! The quality of the game parts and pieces is exceptional! The cards are thicker than a usual playing card, and all the other bits and parts are made very well to hold up over time. I am impressed so much by this, I had to mention it!

This game night was brought to you by Tryazon.com!

It's a Party! A Whiffer Sniffer Party!

Welcome to the Whiffer Sniffers Back-to-School Party at The SugarHigh Lounge! 

The box of goodies...caution!

Whiffer Sniffers is a silly sounding name for a company that makes fantastic smelling, fun items! A "whiffer sniffer" is a small plush scented character that attaches to a backpack or bag using the matching clip.  Here's a video for more info...



Our party began with handing out gift bags. Inside the bags were mystery Whiffer Sniffers, a collectors book, a sticker set and an information sheet.  

Be sure to click each photo to enlarge it to its full size!

Collectors Book & Collectors Sheet
Whiffer Stickers!

After going over information about Whiffer Sniffers and looking through the collectors book, it was type to open the mystery boxes! 

Mystery packs! 
There were so many amazing, cute and adorable Whiffer Sniffers!

So many great characters! And they all smell yummy!

Macaroons and Chocolate Shakes are her faves!

Look at those faces!



The dog sniffed this one for far too long, haha!

Each character comes with a character card, that includes the name and information about that specific character, and the mini checklist for the collection that Whiffer Sniffer belongs in.

Every Whiffer Sniffer has a clip, so that the character can be attached almost anywhere. Backpacks, bags, purses, and even belt loops..these cute little friends can tag along with your kids (or you) everywhere they go! 


Each Whiffer Sniffer can be found in the Collectors Book, as well. With all the information about them!

And stickers!! Scratch & Sniff STICKERS called Whiffer Stickers!!!

It's a 3Doodler Create Party!



3Doodler Create Tryazon Party!


Hey everyone! A week or so ago, we hosted another Tryazon party...this time it was for 3Doodler! 

----EDIT (10/2/2017)--- This 3Doodler Pen broke within 15 minutes of using it, as well as the one that was sent home with a party member as a prize. I contacted the company, and after sending them proof that it was broke (pics) they asked me to send it back to them (End of August). This costs me $7 to send back, and as of today --NOT A THING has been done. I have contacting them again, so we shall see

2/6/2018 --Edit again, after a long ordeal of emails back and forth. The company finally sent a replacement last week. WOO!. 



About 3Doodler

3Doodler is a fantastic little company that makes 3D pens and supplies. The pen used for this party is a 3Doodler Create, and is black - they do come in various colors. The pen itself is super easy to use and works similar to a hot glue gun. Caution should be used with young children, and a 3Doodler Start pen is available for the younger kids. 

   

The pen comes in a nice box, with 2 packs of the plastic, instructions and maintenance tools. Check out my VIDEO for a view of all the items. 


We got to try a huge collection of Matte colors as well the the sets that came with the pen. The photo above shows what we used, but there are TONS of other colors and styles available on their webpage, including clear and metallic plastics.




There are also accessories for 3Doodler, including this Doodle Pad shown above, that helps protect your tables and other surfaces and allows you (and your kids) to freely create without fear of melting table clothes or damaging kitchen tables. 

On to the Party!


So we all gathered around to learn how to use the 3Doodler pen - it is important to read the instructions before you begin! There are many important tips and information on troubleshooting that should be read, as there are some things that could go wrong - and knowing how to fix them will help prevent damage to the pen! The 3Doodler webpage also has a Getting Started guide, too!


The pen is easy to use, with simple 'fast' and 'slow' buttons to control the speed the hot plastic is extruded from the pen. All you have to do is plug it in, wait for it to get hot and insert the plastic (the indicator light turns blue or green based on the type of plastic you use), and you're good to go! 


The 3Doodler pen works just like a pen, you can draw, write or build with it. 




Completed Works

Using a pattern can be helpful, and a couple guests chose a pattern online to print and use. *shown below is an anime character*

  


3Doodler has a Projects Library where you can get complete instructions on many great ideas. *shown below is a butterfly found in the Library*

 


 What a great party! We all learned so much about how to use the pen, just from using it! Be sure to check out my video and see how it works! 

Then, stop by 3Doodler and pick out your own pen ---Christmas is coming!! They are available on AMAZON too!!! 








 Special thanks to Tryazon for giving us the chance to try this great item!
