Telestrations Game Night

I am a huge board game fan. I have a pretty large collection. They take up a large footprint in my living room. While I love role playing and strategy games, I am always on the look out for lighter, simple party games. Telestrations is perfect!

I have the party pack which comes with enough supplies for 12 players! I have another drawing game called Scribblish which I have always loved, but can only support 6 players. Telestrations is the perfect party game and great for a large group! 

 One of my favorite features of Telestrations is that you play on dry erase notepads. This is great for the environment because other sketching games use up lots of paper. These are 100% reusable. Also, because there is no paper, this game is perfect to play outside in the yard. Nothing to blow away, and no trash to pick up. 

 Each page has instructions on what to do during that turn, which is very helpful to those people who don't pay great attention when gaming. I love that I don't have to explain every round. The game is pretty simple. Roll the die and write down that word in your book. Draw a picture, pass, guess the word, pass, until you make a full round. It is hilarious. There is a friendly score and a competitive score. At my house we don't even score, we just pass the books around again and everyone looks through and laughs at what is inside.

I love this game. It's great for larger groups, for lighter gamers, for parties. It's portable, quick setup, easy to learn and really funny. I would recommend to everyone. Young and old, beginners and seasoned gamers too.

Goddess Garden Pool Party

I was first introduced to Goddess Garden a couple years ago through their essential oils which are awesome! Last year I had head that they were making natural sunscreens but hadn't come across any in my local stores.

When Tryazon launched their Goddess Garden Pool Party I knew I had to get in on the action and try this stuff out! 

They have a whole line of sunscreen products including Everyday tube, Everyday spray Sports Kids spray Facial tube, Kids Sport tube, Sport tube, Kids Sport stick,

Face the Day Daily Moisturizer

& Aloe Spray.

Goddess Garden sunscreens are made from minerals so they are effective immediately and are safe for my sensitive skin. Traditional sunscreens absorb the sun’s rays and take 20 minutes to work and break down quickly. So ditch the cocktail of unpronounceable chemicals in your traditional sunscreen and discover Goddess Garden! 

Mineral sunscreens, like Goddess Garden’s contain zinc and titanium. These are simply tiny rocks that work like mirrors to reflect the sun’s ray. They aren’t absorbed so they won’t irritate your skin or get in your bloodstream. They’re effective immediately and won’t break down in the sun. Best of all, you aren’t coating your body in chemicals! Since they’re natural minerals, they’re just as safe for the earth as they are for you, and they don’t affect the reefs! 

We all tried out a whole variety of goddess garden sunscreen products this weekend and they worked great for everyone, even my nephew approves!

 Tips for Applying Natural Mineral Sunscreen 

Start with moisturized skin. Goddess Garden’s sunscreen lotions contain nourishing ingredients your skin loves. If your skin is very dry, it can absorb the lotion faster than you can spread the minerals, resulting in a whitening effect.

Cover small areas of your skin at a time. Because the lotion spreads the minerals, apply mineral sunscreen to small areas at a time so the lotion isn’t absorbed before you get it rubbed on. Applying too much in one place can result in the minerals layering up on your skin’s surface. An even application of mineral sunscreen will provide sheer, yet thorough protection.

If it’s white, you’re not finished. Minerals aren’t absorbed into your skin or bloodstream, so if the minerals are not spread evenly and dry white on your skin’s surface, they’ll stay white.

Try the Facial Sunscreen. If you have a darker skin tone, or if you’re still having trouble, you may want to try Goddess Garden’s Facial Sunscreen. It’s made with a unique polished zinc that creates fewer reflection points that contribute to the whitening effect. Minimizing reflections results in a sheerer look, while offering the same protection. While it’s a facial sunscreen, your arms and legs will love the extra benefits.
