There are also some Amazon items in each of the lists below but if you want all of the Amazon sales, the lists above are going to be your best bet!
Top Game/Activity Deals
Since you know I love my games, I thought I’d start with my highest recommend game deals! There’s everything from backyard games to kids games and a little bit of everything in between! Games make great gifts too!
Azul Game
This board game is unlike any that you’ve played! My dad bought it for me a couple of years ago and it’s not only beautiful but a lot of fun to play too! You’re playing mosaic tiles strategically to try to win (and beat your competitors).

Connect 4 Frenzy
We actually worked with Hasbro to try out this new variation of Connect 4 earlier this year (you can watch a video here), and it is so much fun! Don’t tell them, but I think it’s a lot more fun than normal Connect 4 that can get old sometimes! You play in teams and it’s really fun and frenzied but in a good way. Definitely one of our favorites for the year!

Magic Paper Christmas Coloring Book
This is so much more than just a normal Christmas coloring book – it’s a magical one! As you color it, there are hidden patterns and images that show up. As a mom of boys who love surprises, this one is so fun! And it’s cheap enough to be a stocking stuffer or just Christmas activity!

Puzzle Mat
I just learned about puzzle mats (and puzzle boards honestly) this year and they’ve allowed me to work on puzzles again! If you know a puzzle lover who doesn’t have a puzzle mat – or if you don’t have one and love puzzles – it’s SO helpful! You just roll up the puzzle, store, and then come back to it when you’re ready!

Cards Against Gravity
This card game takes card stacking to a whole other level because you’re literally trying to stack cards and beat gravity! It’s a fun one for most ages and totally unique – something they’ll likely never played before!
Check it out!
Pop Darts Game
If you like yard games, you’ll love Pop Darts, but the best part is you can play this one indoor or out! It’s fun, unique, and great for the entire family!

Magnetic Block Set
Out of all of the things we’ve bought my kids in the past year, these magnetic blocks are the ones that get played with the most! They build things ALL the time – zoos, mountains, mines, and so on. This volcano set is fun but if you want something a little more girly, there are also princess themed sets!
Check it out!
Cover Your Assets
This is one of those games that if you’ve played it before, you’ve probably played it a bunch. But if you haven’t, you need to! My grandma actually bought this game for all of the adults in the family a few years back, and it’s so much fun – even for the kiddos! Grandpa Beck Games has a bunch of fun games like this one – another great one is Skull King (my boys’ favorite!)
Check it out!
Uzzle Game
It’s like a puzzle and a board game had a baby and so much fun! Players have to race to match puzzles before other players – it’s been featured all over the place for good reason, it’s definitely one of the most fun new games out there!
Check it out!
Ticket to Ride
This is one of those feels classic but it’s good enough that everyone should own it regardless if you’ve played it before. It’s an easy game to play but somehow still fun every single time. It’s actually one of my personal favorites!
Check it out!
Spikeball
This is easily my family’s favorite outdoor game to play. It can be super competitive but can also be just super fun for anyone to play! Spikeball is definitely the best brand out of all the ones I’ve tried, and I highly recommend everyone have one of these if you like outdoor games at all!
Check it out!
Ponies Horse Racing Game
This is easily one of my family’s favorite party games, especially when we’re with extended family. It’s a game of luck, rolling dice, and cheering on your horses. I bought an expensive set years ago (before it was everywhere), but this one is the cheapest I’ve ever seen – even for something that’s still great quality! I bought one for myself that I’m using as our travel edition!
Check it out!
Bocce Ball Set
Bocce ball is probably my personal favorite outdoor game because it’s so versatile and anyone can play! Plus, you can play in teams, which makes it great for larger groups! And this set is great because the balls are high-quality!

Buggy Hoverboard Attachment
This thing transforms all those hoverboards that were so popular over the past few years into a buggy Go Kart. I bought one for my boys and can’t wait to see them get use out of the Hoverboard all over again!

Board Game Board
Okay so I know this is technically a puzzle board (still awesome) but what if you used this as a board game board instead? This would be great for games that may take a little longer or if you have to leave a game and don’t want it messed up before you come back to it! I just bought one for myself so we can play without my youngest messing up all the pieces!
Check it out!
Magnetic Dart Board
I actually love darts but having darts with actual tips on them in my house is a no go. This magnetic board is such a great option and honestly I think it’s more fun anyway! Perfect for a game room, gift for teens, or anyone who just likes games!

Sharpie Paint Marker Set
I got a set of Sharpies in a gift exchange once and it’s still one of my favorite things ever – so many more colors than just black! And these aren’t normal Sharpies, these are acrylic paint marker Sharpies so they’re great for crafts and all sorts of activities!

Dot Markers
These are not only great for creativity – they’re also great for games like bingo! And they make really fun stocking stuffers too, my boys love them for coloring in unique ways!

Floating Orb
My boys both got these for Christmas last year and play with them all the time! As long as you keep it charged, it’s a lot of fun to watch it float, fly, and spin through the air! A great stocking stuffer or small gift for kids!

Speed Push Game
These were all the rage on TikTok a few years back, and I bought my boys each one. They still play with them regularly – they’re perfect for screen free fun at home, on road trips, and more! Plus, it doubles as a fidget too!

I actually got this game when it was created through a crowd funding campaign and it’s so much fun! If you like movies and music, you’ll love this game. It’s perfect for game nights, movie night entertainment, and more!

Check it out!
Combo Foodi Power System
I’ve been eyeing this thing for a while because it takes all of our appliances and puts it into one appliance, meaning I could get rid of the others. And Ninja is always a quality brand. Just imagine being able to use one machine for smoothies, sauces, chopping veggies, and more. And the price is so low, I just convinced myself to order one too!
Check it out!
Wood Movie Night Tray
If you like movie night snacks, you’ll love this tray. It holds a drink, a remove, a snack, and could even hold a game if you want it to. It’s a fun host gift, gift for yourself, or gift exchange gift (add some movie snacks with it).

GCI Rocker Chair
I know it feels like you may not need outdoor chairs anytime soon but now is the perfect time to stock up. These are my favorite chair – the rocking is just enough to make it comfortable to sit in forever but not too much that you feel like you’re falling back! They have a bunch of colors, but this one is fun!
Check it out!
Bluetooth Waterproof Speaker
This is the brand of bluetooth speaker we’ve had for years and the sound quality is just fantastic. We use it for everything from Name that Tune to Christmas music bingo and of course just dance parties. This one is even better because it’s waterproof and drop proof – perfect for all those outdoor parties once summer comes back around!
Check it out!

This fun Christmas themed box has all sorts of fun holiday surprises inside and it’s on sale for Black Friday right now! Think cozy socks, mugs, and more.

Or you just know someone who loves cozy Christmas!
Check it out!
Glass Containers
If you cook a lot like we do, glass storage containers will be your best friend and these are some of the highest quality ones out there. We store leftovers in them, warm things up in the oven in them, and pretty much use them for everything. I love that this set comes with airtight lids and lots of different sizes – plus it’s a great deal!
Check it out!
Pretty Paper Mate Pens
My teacher friend introduced me to these a few years back, and I’ve never looked back. They are bold, write smooth, and just feel nice in your hand. I use them all the time to write gift tags, decorate things, and more.

Skylight Calendar
I don’t know anyone who doesn’t need a good calendar, and the Skylight one is my favorite because it’s a digital calendar that sits on our counter for the whole family to use.
