DAO GAME

First to recommend

Description

this is a GREAT game - the simplicity of tic tac toe, but with a lot more strategy.

Dao is a two-player abstract strategy board game, which won the Mensa Select award in 2001. It comprises a 4x4 playing board with four playing pieces for each player.

The aim of the game is to arrange your pieces in certain winning formations before your opponent can. It is unique because any piece that is moving must move as far as it can.

Ole Million Face Game

Make countless faces through the various combinations of the facial feature blocks. Fascinating for kids old and young. Many older adults may remember this or a similar toy from their youth.
Just try to leave it out on the table and not touch it or fiddle with changing the features on the poor guy!

Montana Antler Craft Fire Starter

First to recommend

Description

Firestarter with an antler handle. I know... I'm not thrilled about the antler part either, but I bet there are hunters or campers in your life who would find this a fabulous gift! There certainly were in my family. The firestarter also includes a strip of magnesium to ensure a quickly lit fire no matter what the conditions.

The Amazing Desktop Dinosaur Plant

3 people recommended this item

Description

another stocking stuffer that was a big hit. This plant is supposedly able to live for 50 years with no water and then spring back to life when it has water again. In a matter of hours it went from the dried up ball of matter to something sort of resembling a plant.... the green color is taking a little longer to come back. Fascinating project for kids or the plant lover around you.
