To Go! Games

The kids love games! We, as a family, play a lot of games at home. We travel a lot and have taken a few games with us. It’s kind of hard to take a full size game when you travel, isn’t it? I am so excited to share with you that some of your favorite games are now available, but in a compact, easy size to travel with!

Mattel has some really fun To Go Games that are so much fun, great priced and the perfect size to stock up on and travel with!

MG thoughts

These are perfect!!!

Uno Spin: I have to giggle at Uno Spin. The cards are so cute! The cards are about 1/3 the size of the full size Uno game. My only fallback for the Uno Spin ‘To Go’ is that the game is that there is NOT a bag for it. If you are traveling with a card game, there needs to be some type of bag or box to be able to travel with it. In my opinion, this game is the perfect size for travel, but I wouldn’t travel with it, because there isn’t a holder for it.

Mad Gab: So far, this one is my fave! It is fun, but it also comes in a travel case. You can open it up, and you have your sand timer, 60 cards, rule sheet and there is even a part ON the game that is your score marker. When each person gets a point, there is a plastic arrow that you can move over to mark points. The entire game area is the actual case with hinges. Fold up and you are ready to travel.

Kerplunk: Two words – tiny pieces. Three words: Amazing Travel Container! With as many pieces that this game has, this fun filled game comes where you can expand where you can play this game in all it’s glory, but there is a fantastic travel container that IS the game itself. Totally worth getting!

Flippin’ Frogs: Another perfect example of a travel game. This has all the pieces, yes a lot, but they are in a travel container. You play the game, it has a resting place. Fun & perfect!
