Swinxs interactive activity game console #giveaway

November 8, 2009 by Momstart 413 Comments

Swinxs has been in our house for a week or two now. A toy I am keeping and recommend for the Christmas Gift Guide. Swinxs contacted me and asked me to do a review and when I saw the premise I was very excited to do this one. You see, this is an interactive toy that encourages kids to get off their bums!

I’m all over that one.

Swinxs is an interactive game console that you can take with you anywhere. It is chargeable over USB but also comes with a plug to plug into the wall. It is easy to set up and you can use your computer to customize it. It comes with about 10 different interactive games and it’s so much fun to watch my children play it. There are four bracelets that help the children interact with the toy but not all of the games require it.

For instance the fly swatting game. This is one of my families favorite games. To enter the game you swipe your bracelet, then you listen to the directions. Listen to the buzzing of the fly, when the fly lands you won’t hear the buzzing. Then you need to swat it. My kids love swatting the Swinxs. It makes a great loud sound.

There is Swinxs dash, Swinxs jukebox and Swinxs quiz.. As a mom trying to get my kids to play more swinxs dash is awesome. The kids love it, they love an excuse to run like wild monkeys throughout the house touching things and running back to me. This game is awesome because they get so worked up and excited. They start smiling and tackeling each other and then they giggle. I took some video of it but I can’t transfer it right now. Makes me sad because they are adorable playing with swinxs. This is perfect for the rainy day spent inside.

As I said above it is customizable. You can upload music to your on-line swinxs account and then download the music onto your swinxs. You can choose from other games and you can write your own game. I’m going to have to show my husband so he can create a game for us.

Swinxs not only sent me one to review but they are also offering one to giveaway to one of my readers.
