Family Fun 30 Great Games: Winter Fun for Wii review and GIVEAWAY-CLOSED

Tuesday, March 09, 2010

Its been said before, we love our Nintendo Wii. We have well over 30 games and love to add to the collection for those “I’m so bored” days. We’ve been enjoying a new game the last couple weeks, Family Party: 30 Great Games Winter Fun. Especially with the Winter Olympic games recently wrapping up it was fun to watch them on tv and attempt them in a game.





Like most Wii games Family Party: 30 Great Games Winter Fun is played by moving the controllers along with a series of buttons. And like most Wii games there is a learning process. Shaun is our key Wii player so he was the first to play this game. He was initially very frustrated with the different motions and sequences that had to be done to get his character to ski or skate. By the 2nd or 3rd time playing he had all the events covered and it has become one of his go games.

Family Party: 30 Great Games Winter Fun is the latest in the top-selling Family Party franchise, including Family Party: 30 Great Games and iParenting Award winner Family Party: 30 Great Games Outdoor Fun. Winter Fun delivers hours of family entertainment on Wii where players can choose from over a dozen cute characters dressed head-to-toe in customizable winter outfits, and can participate in up to four player action including multiplayer co-op, available for the first time ever in the franchise. Players will be getting in the spirit of playing all-time favorite winter games and competing and unlocking games and challenges to achieve high scores and win medals!

The games we play in our house are safe for the whole family, even for Shae who thinks she’s playing; no violence, no foul language, no sketchy characters. Win 1 of 3 copies of Family Party: 30 Great Games Winter Fun for Nintendo Wii right here at LookWhatMomFound…and Dad too! Tell me what other family friendly games you like to play.

    I haven't tackled a Wii yet, but my son and grandson got one a couple months ago and I love watching them play! They like their Wii Sports Resort so I'm sure they'd like this one too. They spend a lot of hours watching Olympics together.

    We love that the wii is so family friendly my daughter loves to "play" the wii with us, and we enjoy doing golf and bowling...I am sure in a year or so she is going to be winning all the games! We live in Wisconsin and we also like to get outside and enjoy the wonderful activities that the snow provides sledding, skating and snowball fights :) This is perfect for those -20 degrees days where we can be inside but do outside activities thanks to the wii! sallyanne03@gmail.com

    We play the Wii Fit and our favorite is the hula hoop because it makes us laugh so hard. We even got my father (PaPa) to try it and he is age 72 and could only get to 3. I had to take pictures because the expressions he would make was hilarious~! The kids just love watching everyone and then showing us how good they are compared to us~!
    It's a great time for all. Thanks for sharing this fun filled giveaway.

    On the Wii, we like Boom Blox and Mario Kart. For board/card games, we like Ticket to Ride and Dominion.
