How To Train Your Dragon Video Game Giveaway

How to Train Your Dragon has definitely been one of the biggest box office hits so far this year and the video games from Activision based on the movie are flying off the shelf. The video games allow players to experience the game as “Hiccup” or “Astrid” on the Island of Berk which features places from the movie like the Viking Village, Wild Zone, Training Zone and Flight Arena. The graphics in the game are spectacular and players train their dragons, play mini-games, explore area of the island and battle in tournaments. The game is rated E10+ for fantasy violence, but my 8 year old was so into the dragon training aspect of the game she really didn’t seem phased by the battle aspect. My 13 year old also thought the game was easy enough for the younger kids to enjoy but challenging enough to keep his interest.

THE GIVEAWAY

Activision has provided me with 6 copies of the How To Train Your Dragon Video Game to giveaway:

That means there will be 6 lucky winners!

How To Enter

  • Leave us a comment telling us which game system you have (this is MANDATORY because I have 2 of everything and I want you to get the game that works on your system). Also, if you saw the movie, how did you like it? Or are you like me, waiting for it to come out on DVD – because somehow we never made it to the theaters to see it.
  • Get a bonus entry if you let your friends online know about our giveaway – whether it is by posting about it on your own blog, giving a shout out on Twitter (we are @Printables4Kids), Facebook (“LIKE”  Printables4Kids while you are there) or your favorite social media site – help us spread the word about the How To Train Your Dragon video game giveaway.

Baby Signing Time DVD Set Giveaway

Baby Signing Time

Babies really can learn to communicate via signing well before they can form words – and using the Baby Signing Time DVDs and curriculum, you can teach your child to sign in a really fun, engaging way. The creators of the hit series, Signing Time, have found that teaching babies and toddlers to sign can reduce tantrums, frustration and help increase the bond between parents and children. Plus, you are exposing your child to a real second language (American Sign Language) at an early age – when their vocabulary is growing the fastest.
