Make a Skylanders Themed Easter Basket #EggsellentSkylanders

March 26, 2015 by Momstart Leave a Comment

Compensation was provided via MomTrends. The opinions expressed herein are those of the author and are not indicative of the opinions of Skylanders or MomTrends. 

Miles and Zoe love Skylanders, so much so that when they met the actor that does the VO for the captain they recognized his voice. Patrick Warburton was really a great guy and very good with kids. Skylanders has been in our house for years and this year we’re celebrating Easter with them the Trap Team and the new Trap Team Easter Toys.

Eggsellent Weeruptor was chosen as this year’s official mascot for the Annual Dragon Egg Hunt! Being new to this time honored tradition, he disguised himself as a candy-coated egg and proceeded to capture Spyro, Cynder, and Drobot within a Traptanium basket… sort of missing the point of the occasion. But what he lacks in point-getting, he more than makes up for in “Eggsellence!”7249_15_0111_s20140306-0052

Power Punch Pet-Vac was the greatest, most daring flying ace in all of Windham. He was given his magical wings when he was young, as was the tradition for all Air Barons. But when his homeland was raided, he chose to sacrifice his wings to a young mother so she could fly her children to safety. This act of nobility caught the attention of Master Eon, who sought out the young Air Baron and presented him with a gift – a powerful vacuum device that would allow him to soar through the skies once again. Jet-Vac accepted the gift with gratitude, and now daringly fights evil alongside the other Skylanders.STT_PPPetVac_Blister_FINAL

The Bunny Earth Trap is one of the most unique Traps of the bunch and features a cute bunny-themed design.

I let the kids help with their own baskets this year. They had a lot of fun making them. Zoe decided to put the packages in and she arranged them herself, while Miles opened each package and placed them in his basket. He told me that more would fit in that way.

After letting both of them make their own baskets I decided to make one more final basket to show how amazing it can look.

The Trap Team

With Skylanders Trap Team, players can take characters out of the game and place them into physical “Traps” that kids can take with them, effectively bringing Life to Toys. In Zoe’s words the Trap Team game is awesome. You can play with two or one character and there is a trap that captures them. They are stronger and really cool. Miles says you put them in the trap and you have an element key and you put someone that has that element on that spot. That’s all they learned from a commercial and reading the box, or playing with a friend. Because we just received the game ourselves.

OFFICIAL GAME PLAY:

In Skylanders Trap Team, you can play as a Skylander or capture Skylands’ most wanted foes and unleash them for good. It’s up to Portal Masters to find these villains and capture them inside the new Traps that transport the villains into the real world via the Traptanium Portal. Once trapped, players can return the villain to Skylands as a playable character. This exciting new play pattern gives fans the option to switch between playing as a Skylander hero or a villain at any time, creating fun and unique “tag team” gameplay.

How did we celebrate the fun with Frito-Lay and the upcoming Skylanders® Trap Team™? We went to New York and spent a day at Central Park. Central Park is HUGE! We walked about 7 miles that day. We watched different people do street performances. Then we found a castle and we only left because we got hungry.

clip_image012

Then we had a great family dinner at Guy Fieri’s restaurant. Once we were home from New York we continued the fun at home of course by playing Skylanders® and then by taking our little Skylanders® character Fire Bone Hot Dog outside to play with us. He really liked exploring our neighborhood.

How To Throw A Skylanders Party

June 17, 2014 by Momstart 16 Comments

We are partnering with Frito-Lay and Skylanders and received a lot of Skylanders Swag including the Xbox 360 version of Skylanders Swap Force and my children have been dying to open it and play with all of it and I made them wait for the "Choose and Name a New Hero" party day. The party day finally came and now I’ll be lucky to rip the kids away from the Xbox at all this summer. Skylanders RULE!

Skylanders pinterest photo

clip_image001

 

The three Skylanders Trap Team™ hero finalist names and their fan-submitted inspirations (in alphabetical order by hero name) are:

"Bat Spin" submitted by Kimberly Josey from Charlotte, N.C., is a witch tasked with saving the underworld from trolls to prove worthy of joining the Skylanders heroes.

"Flip Wreck" submitted by Noel Foster from Clearwater, Fla., is imagined as half-dolphin and half-shipwreck, unlike any Skylanders the world has ever seen.

"High Five" submitted by Phylicia Nakamoto from Elk Grove, Calif., is the fifth son of the Royal High Flying Dragonflies. Famous for his great speed, this hero can fly higher and faster than any other dragonfly in Skylanders.

The voting is over and the winning hero will appear on Skylanders packaging and in the Skylanders Trap Team™ video game slated for release in North America on October 5, 2014. The finalist receiving the most eligible fan votes will be awarded a $100,000 scholarship.  To celebrate the promotion, fans will receive $10-off coupons for Skylanders SWAP Force™ Starter Packs in specially marked packs of Frito-Lay Classic Mix and Flavor Mix 20-count variety packs.

Now for the Fun….

clip_image003

We had the characters out and the kids role played with their favorite characters while I finished getting the final touches ready. We also had some Skylanders coloring sheets ready for kids that like to color.

clip_image005clip_image007

I had so much fun setting up the party area because all you need is color when it comes to Frito-Lay and Skylanders. Another party activity we had was create your own Skylanders cupcake. I had a cookie cutter that I used to cut the shape out of a cake I made and then gave the kids the supplies and cupcakes were made.

clip_image009

Supplies needed:

Cupcakes or cookies
lots of icing options
Candy

This is the winning Skylanders cupcake:

clip_image011

The kids also had fun swapping Skylanders cards.

clip_image013

I was really concerned fighting would break out but it was so awesome, Miles and Zoe were able to make sure they had the same amount of cards and that Zoe had the “Strong” girls and Miles had the boys.

clip_image015

So for a party you need:

Color
Food
Cake
Fun

For the fun we had a ball toss game.

clip_image017

Each kid paired up and took one of the Skylanders Balls (inside them were Skylanders key chains)

They would toss the ball to their partner.

Then they take a step back.

Then they toss it again.

They continue doing this until someone doesn’t catch it then they are out.

Winners got a Skylanders prize.

Everyone had a great time at our party and we’re thrilled it was a success!

Activision’s Skylanders Swap Force Xbox 360 & Xbox One

December 16, 2013 by Momstart Leave a Comment

My kids played Skylanders Swap Force for the first time this weekend and they loved it. It’s the first game that my daughter has really truly enjoyed. Most games are more complex and the controls are hard for her to figure out, but Skylanders sucked her in with the story and then with the controls and game play. We have the game for the Xbox 360 but might just have to upgrade to Xbox One. I love how easy it is to play Skylanders between consoles, but mostly I was so happy to see my daughter actually get a kick out of playing a video game. Skylanders is made for kids young and old!

Skylanders_SWAPForce_Screen1

The skylanders need your help:Embark on an exciting new adventure with the Skylanders and the SWAP Force. For generations, the SWAP Force protected the volcano that replenishes Skylands’ magic. That is until an epic battle caught them in an eruption that blasted them apart, sent them to Earth and gave them the ability to swap powers. Only you can mix and match their tops and bottoms, put them on the new Portal of Power™ and save Skylands.

image

Miles and Zoe both wanted to play Blast Zone, he seems to be a very powerful player. It’ nice because as they go from level to level the game told them which power they needed and the kids had fun swapping the characters making new characters. I think I read that if you have all the characters you can create 256 different combinations of power, that’s awesome!!!.

An all-new team of characters can swap their bottom and top halves for unique gameplay experiences. Kids can even bring their older Skylanders in to join the fun – including Giants! The SWAP Force Starter pack comes with the game, two swappable Skylanders, one standard Skylander, and an updated Portal of Power.

 

Product Details

Includes:

  • 1 Video Game
  • 1 NEW Portal of Power
  • 5 Dark Skylanders Figures
  • 5 Character Sticker Sheets with Secret Codes
  • 5 Trading Cards
  • 1 Mega Character Poster

The Cross Platform Game: Activision Skylanders Giants

December 9, 2012 by Momstart 5 Comments

What I truly love about this game is that it doesn’t matter which platform you have, Xbox 360, Wii, or Playstation your Skylander Giant will work on any of them. Your character can be played with other players on different platforms it’s amazing! I’ve loved the idea of Skylanders since the first video game came out last year, I believe. Last year Skylanders was at Time To Play and listed as one of the top ten toys, it’s innovative, and so smart because the figurines increase your game. You can play the game without getting any other figures, but that’s the fun collectible part that just increases the depth and ingenuity to the game.

Any figurine can be used by anybody, at anytime, in any chapter (game level), anywhere there is a portal any console. What the game saves, and what each figure saves are two different things. The figures can save only one profile. You can save as many different games as your console will allow. EX: You may have your own game up to chapter(level) 12, but maybe a friend’s game is only up to chapter 3. He can still use the figurine’s powers you have earned. I hope that makes sense.

image

The Skylanders Story from Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure

For generations, the Skylanders — a diverse group of mythical creatures, each with their own powers, personality and tendencies — have used their magical powers, weapons and levelable battle skills to protect their homeland, the Skylands. But now, an evil tyrant with the powers of a portal master has frozen and banished them to Earth. Only you, a portal master yourself, can physically put Skylanders on the Portal of Power — a conduit between this world and theirs — and bring them back to life in their world where they can battle to save Skylands forever.

image

Action Figures with Brains

Skylanders are special physical action figures that come to life in-game. Just take a Skylander, place it on the included Portal of Power, which is synched to your game console and a representation of your chosen Skylander will come to life in the video game and do your bidding. There are over 30 Skylanders in total – each with unique abilities and powers (three are included in your starter pack). Skylander action figures remember their in-game experiences and upgrades as they explore the mysterious world of Skylands, battle menacing creatures and collect treasures. Conveniently, it doesn’t matter what gaming system your friends have at their house, the Skylanders work on and across all major video game systems. That means that you can take your Skylanders over to your friend’s house, drop them on their Portal of Power and your Skylanders will come to life in the game.

From Skylanders Giants:

Frozen in our world. Alive in theirs.

Thousands of years ago, the Skylanders Giants fought epic battles in Skylands, but were banished to Earth. Now Kaos is back and with a new threat looming, it’s time to bring them back to join forces with the Skylanders. Only you can put them into the Portal of Power® to unleash their strength in the ultimate battle to save Skylands.
Are you ready to face Kaos?

Key Features:

  • Starter Pack includes: Video Game, Portal of Power, 3- Skylanders Figures, Character Collection Poster, 3-Sticker Sheets with Secret Codes and 3-Trading Cards
  • Bring the Skylanders Giants back from banishment to join the Skylanders once again in this Starter Pack
  • Unleash the power of the Skylanders Giants with the Portal of Power®

Xbox 360:

No special instructions

Wii vs. Wii U:

The Wii and WiiU use the same portal. They are completely compatible in every way except for the software. The Wii software will work on the WiiU (though the game won’t be in HD if they play with Wii software), but the Wii U software will not work on the Wii. Toys will work on both platforms.

 

We received a sample from Activision.
