Around this time of year, we have Father's Day, and then two weeks later, it's my husband's birthday, then on July 2nd, it's Hailey's 2nd birthday, and on July 20th, Chloe will be 5 years old! For those of you who have watched my children grow up, this is a crazy summer for us with Father's day and 3 birthdays! But it's fun at the same time!
We go out to eat for each event, we spend time together doing things as a family. For Father's Day, we went out to eat the Saturday before to a restaurant in downtown Nashville that my husband said had great hamburgers! I am not a huge hamburger person, but it was his choice as to where we were going for lunch. I grabbed the Squiggle Spin and Seek Original on the way out the door thinking that it might be fun to try out, and it was!
My four and a half year old daughter Chloe, my husband, and I spent our time waiting for our meals to come playing it! She enjoyed it so much, that she kept playing it after we got home, and again, the next day! Now when she's looking for something to do, she asks for her Squiggle Spin and Seek pad. My only issue with it was that the little marker wouldn't stay inbetween the cardboard things that pop out to hold the pen. So I put a big paperclip on the end of it, as you can see in the photo above, and the pen stays with the pad perfectly!
Instructions on how to play:
1) Spin the wheel
2) Find the three objects in the area that the arrow points to
3) Color them in with the yellow pen (that comes with it), a pencil, or crayon.
4) Spin the wheel and start all over again!
Doodling was once thought of as a mindless activity, but studies are now showing the opposite results. Not only is it linked to helping one remember, it can also
inspire creativity. Everyone loves to doodle, and the line of SQUIGGLE activity pads and games is a simple vehicle to make that happen. The Chief Squiggler at RandomLine Inc. believes
doodling fuels creativity, helping to unlock the creative genius inside. The SQUIGGLE line of award winning games and activity pads now includes over 30 doodle pads and Spin and Seek hidden-object pads that offer something for all ages and interests.
