Happy Holidays from Nintendo

#PlayNintendo

When you’re good buddies with the coolest video game company on the planet, good things happen. The Nintendo gang is doing a bang-up job with the #KidReviewers program that Jason and Ryan are both participating in. Sure, I’m loving how both my boys need to put together video reviewers or, even better, write up detailed reviews of different games. It’s such a great way to get them more involved with writing and blogging. But Nintendo …

Have a Super Mario Halloween with These Pumpkin Stencils

Halloween’s just around the corner. And if you’re like me, you’ve probably gotten a big jump on stocking up on candy. And you’ve also probably eaten half of it by now… We haven’t gone pumpkin picking yet but hopefully we’ll do that this weekend and then do some carving. It’s just been so warm lately, I’m afraid to do it and have all the pumpkins start rotting. But after the email I just got from Nintendo …
