Trick or Treat ~ Bugs Card Game #Giveaway

I have to admit, I’m not a huge fan of creepy crawlers.  We have a general agreement with each other, though, as long as I don’t see them, they get to live happy little lives.  I’m fully aware of how important bugs are to our eco-system and I appreciate them for it, but still, not my favorite little guys.

However, since discovering the “Bugs” Card Game, I have a new appreciation for them, at least when it comes to encouraging math skills and providing hours of entertaining fun.

The basic premise of the game:  A swarm of bugs is in the neighborhood and you want to be the first player to clear your yard of any bugs (play all the cards in your hand). Toss in some bug repellent  netting, and the occasional exterminator and the action is fast-paced, competitive fun!

My rural boys (ages 9 and 11) fall right in the suggested age for game play (10+) and had a blast making bug noises, aiding each other in keeping track of numbers, and racing to not be the last bug standing.

Bugs is creepy enough for a cool Halloween treat, or simply to enjoy for every day game play.
