Pressman Toys Review & Giveaway

For many years Pressman Toys have been entertaining children though the hot summer months. Board games are a great ways to beat the heat and spend family time together. Pressman Toys roots stretch back to the 1920's and continued with the formula of successful entertainment and games since. Pressman Toys produce hundreds of board games, travel games, cards games, for kids & adults.

Adding many favorite licensed characters to their games allowed Pressman Toys to take games to another level for the players. My children enjoyed the Dinosaur Train characters, so to my son, it is like he is guiding his favorite characters along the game board. My son tried the Dinosaur Train All Aboard Game and it strengths his counting & direction skills. He has fun, spinning the pocket watch spinner wheel. Counting & following dinosaur foot prints, as his game piece racing to the nest.
Dinosaur Train All Aboard Game accommodates 2 to 6 players, ages 4 and up. Thanks to Pressman Toys for sponsoring "The Hotter Than Summer Event " & for giving one reader the very same game.
