Are you ready for a FUN game? BEJEWELED Frenzy is easily a new family favorite!
This game is intended for 2-4 players (over the age of 8). The objective is to get the most points by building the tallest stack of collapsed cards. To set up the game, you first need to know how many players are going to play. Each player will receive one card (faceup). This card is the beginning of their chain. The remainder of the cards will be distributed evenly into the game case.
The dealer goes first by picking up a card from the game case. You will want to choose the card that matches your current card.
The first person to collapse 3 cards will receive a Boost Gem... which gives you 5 extra points!
Take turns with the other players taking cards from the game case. Each turn you are trying to build your stack of collapsed cards (match 3 gems).
Once you have collapsed 3 cards into one pile, the top card is still in play. Keep it in your card chain. You cannot have any gasps in your chain.
When you run out of cards in the game case, then it's time to declare a winner! Each player needs to score their tallest stack. You get 1 point for each card. You get 5 extra points for each Boost Gem you have collected throughout the game. The person with the most points wins!
One lucky reader will win BEJEWELED Frenzy!

We got to the venue - Theatre of the Clouds in the Rose Garden Amphitheatre with enough time to grab something to eat and head to our seats. Unfortunately I dropped my burger. And knocked a 7 year old down. whoops. Yes, that's how my evening started, but thankfully that was the worst of it and DJ Lance Rock and the Gabbas made up for that with their super-fun show. On a side note - double check what kinds of food services your venue has. If you are planning to eat there be prepared to fork out some cash, nothing is cheap :)
So, sitting in our seats. My son Dylan and daughter Riley -both will be 3 in April - weren't sure what to make of it all. Sure, they have been to concerts in the park, at the zoo, and the movies, but they have never been to a live show quite like this. They saw the Yo Gabba Gabba graphic lighting up the stage and got super excited. We got to our seats about 15 minutes early and I think Dylan thought that was it - we were there to look at the cartoon image on the stage. He looked at me and quietly said "mommy, I want to go home", not realizing what was in store for us. I told him to wait a few more minutes...
After a couple of other songs it was time to say goodbye ("So long, see ya later, iiiiit waaaas fuuuuuun").. Dylan started crying. A lot. I thought he was tired, but he was SAD. He didn't want to see Yo Gabba Gabba end. So I told him I had another surprise for him...
At the show we did get a few souvenirs - two Beanie Gabbas and a Yo Gabba Gabba Boom Box Theater. The prices I noted were $15 for the small beanies, $25 for kid's t-shirts, and the Boom Box Theater was $35. Sure, you can find these things cheaper online, but to me buying at the actual show just enhances the experience. Dylan played with the Boom Box the whole way home and relived what he just saw. Riley quickly fell asleep in her car seat clutching and snuggling her Foofa and Brobee beanies. For me, getting the toys at the show will make this memory even bigger as they get older. Can you imagine going to Disneyland and not getting mouse ears? I can picture them at 20 years old saying 'remember when mom and dad took us to see Yo Gabba Gabba? That was so much fun!". Who knows? They may even keep those little toys forever...
Here's a list of the upcoming shows! I highly recommend taking your little ones!
