Pop Goes The…: Get Ready to Have a Blast with Blast Box


What It Is: I like to think of today’s gift idea as a more explosive version of say…Jenga. The gist of this family-friendly game called Blast Box is you blow up one balloon for each player and add it to the base. Then you either use the included spinner (or download a free trivia app to answer questions) to determine how many plastic nails you have to hammer into the box. Be careful where you place ’em though – one wrong move can cause a balloon to pop and deflate your chances of winning. Easy to set up and play, this high stakes, high tension game will have everyone razzing each other from start to finish.

Who It’s For: The grandkids. Your own family for game night. Your local moms group to keep the little ones occupied.

What It Costs: $25

Where It’s At: Manufactured by Zing, you can pick up this tense game at Mastermind Toys.
