I absolutely love to play games on holidays! That’s why I started our new Holiday Gameschooling series. Today, I am sharing one of our new favorite Thanksgiving games. It’s called Potato Pirates and it is both adorable and hilarious.
Best part? As your child plays, she will be learning coding skills!
Potato Pirates is the Perfect Thanksgiving Game!
*Disclosure: I received Potato Pirates at no cost. I was not required to write a positive review and, as always, all thoughts and opinions are my own. I only share resources that I would use with my own family and those that I believe other families will enjoy. Our family has enjoyed ThinkFun games for years!
This post is part of the Growing List of My Little Poppies Game Reviews. Slowly but surely, I am making my way through our game closet and sharing our thoughts. Stay tuned for more posts in this series!
Potato Pirates is the PERFECT game to play this Thanksgiving!
Potato Pirates is a new game from ThinkFun… and it’s just in time for Thanksgiving! (It would also make a great addition to your Talk Like a Pirate Day fun!)
In this multi-player game, the goal is to be the first player to save the Potato Pirate. In order to do so, you’ll need to carefully program attacks on the enemy crew!
My children absolutely loved this game! I did, too! I couldn’t get over the little potato sack and stuffed potatoes! (Our dog, Calla, had her eyes on those little spuds, too!)
