Starlink: Battle For Atlas Game PS4 – Makes a Great Christmas Gift

Christmas is always a great time to sit with family and make memories to last a lifetime.   My son is an avid fan of the PS4 and playing different games.  The Starlink:  Battle for Atlas was no different.   He absolutely loves this one. I sat down with my son and got to know this one a little better than what I had imagined.  This would be a great gift for someone who likes starship and flying games.

The Starlink: Battle for Atlas allows players to put together and choose their starships and customize them.  They can then play the game and battle it out with pilots and use starships.

Starlink: Battle for Atlas is an open-world space saga that features modular toy technology that allows players to assemble and customize real-world physical starships, link the starships to their game controller, and launch into an epic adventure across the Atlas star system, either in single player or with a friend in two-player split-screen local co-op.
Each modular component and pilot attached to the starship appears instantly in-game, allowing players to directly affect the course of their battle in a meaningful way.
The game is available on Nintendo Switch, the PlayStation®4 and Xbox One at Best Buy.  Save $25 on Starter Packs. Plus, save 30% on Starlink toys from 12/16-12/22.

Legrand In-Wall TV Power Kit

by Leave a Comment

The Legrand In-Wall TV Power Kit is a must have for those that have a tv installed on their wall.  It hides those ugly TV Cables! You can get one of these at Best Buy.
The kit easily routes TV power and HDMI cable in-wall, with no electrical wiring required.  I LOVE that there was no extra wiring or electrician needed.  The In-wall storage takes control of cables and wires to eliminate tangles across your floor, and a white decorator plate provides a finished look.  This Legrand flat panel recessed connection kit offers convenient access to the back of your TV.

This In-Wall TV Power Kit was so easy to install.  At first when I received the product, I thought it was going to be harder than what it really was to install it.  It literally took less than an hour and no electrician was needed.  The electric did not even have to be shut off to install in the wall either.  This kit hides all of your cables and all you see is the tv itself.  Literally there are no wires that show around the tv.  The Kit powers multiple devices such as a TV, speaker bar or internet media box.  I love this kit.  I would have never thought it would be as easy as it was.  I definitely recommend this to others that have a tv on their wall.

The reviewer has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free.

Leash training for puppies: Everything you need to know

Leash training for puppies: Everything you need to know

 

Every puppy training is the same yet different. They usually revolve around having patience and ample treats. In that sense, leash training is no different. You need to create a nice atmosphere, a few basic commands and prepare for the worst. However, if you give it enough time, there is no way you will not succeed. As a result, you will have a well-behaved doggie with whom you’ll have lots of fun.

Here are some basic tips we got from the puppy training experts at Kaufmann’s and steps that you will need to follow in order to train your puppy how to walk on a leash. Read on!

 

 

  • Be patient

 

Like with any other type of dog training, patience is the key. You shouldn’t get frustrated no matter what happens. Have in mind that puppies are rather restless and easy to excite so you are bound to have some issues. Just make sure to remain consistent, use the same method of teaching and you will be alright.

 

  • Don’t use force

 

No matter what you do, don’t use force. You might get frustrated along the way but it’s crucial to keep your cool no matter what. The worst thing that can happen is you alienating your puppy. Even if you’re outside and your puppy starts throwing fits, make sure to respond properly. In the end, you’re the adult one!

 

  • Get him used to a collar

 

Before you go outside its necessary to teach your puppy about harness and collar. You shouldn’t just go outside all of a sudden. Instead, do some exercises beforehand. You should also try walking together and simulating the real walk. Puppy should get accustomed to a feeling of collar and even if starts throwing a fit, you need to press on. Persuade a puppy to come to you by using small treats. Then put a collar on it. After a while dog needs to learn that a collar is actually a positive thing; that when you put a collar on him this means you’re going outside for a walk.

 

  • Make sure that a puppy doesn’t get overly excited before a walk

 

Like with everything else, if a puppy gets too excited problems will start appearing. It will start pulling the leash as much as possible wanting to get to the park as soon as possible. Have in mind that dog will always be excited to an extent; just make sure it doesn’t go overboard. If it starts running around, pause for a few minutes and then go out.

 

  • Pulling on leash

 

With that being said, pulling on leash is the most common issue that dog owners encounter during walks. So what do you do? Nothing! Just stay put in place and wait for a puppy to stop pulling. Always remember that you’re the one in charge and that you shouldn’t allow dog to dictate the tempo. Instead, it needs to know that you’re going according to your own pace. This is important not only for walks and going outside but everything in general. It is the basis for puppy’s discipline.

 

  • Dog stopping

 

Sometimes a dog may stop during the walk. He might start pouting or throwing a hissy fit. If that happens, go to it, try to pet it a bit and motivate it to continue. You can also try to sway it to your side by giving it a treat.

 

With these simple tips, your dog will learn how to walk with a leash. Make sure to be patient, full of love and take things slowly. Through repetition, the whole process will be a breeze.

Family Night Game Ideas

Family Night Game Ideas

 

Spending time together as a family is important. This helps bring family members together and is an all-around fun activity for everyone. Smiling and laughing together as a family can help everyone involved become happier individuals. Game nights inhibit positive vibes, a positive mood and help to build connections between family members. There is nothing quite as special as further creating an emotional bond with a family member. Families fight and get on each other’s nerves, but setting aside time for one another is equally important for good family relations. Some game ideas include card games, charades, escape rooms, monopoly, stratego, would you rather and even apples to apples.

 

Card games

The classic and low budget choice of cards is a family favorite. With only one pack of cards, the game options are endless. Choose the game of the night as a family and have fun with it! Some classics include crazy eights, go fish, slapjack, and poker, though the game options are limitless.

 

Charades

Put your drama skills to the test with charades! Convey words and events with facial reactions and motions. Remember, no talking is allowed!

 

Escape Room

For a family activity outside of the living room, consider an escape room. Escape Room Des Moines allows people an hour to escape a room by solving puzzles, following clues and cracking the codes. The perfect activity for the family that is curious at heart!

 

Monopoly

Monopoly is yet another timeless classic. Monopoly is the board game where players must purchase real estate and force opponents into bankruptcy. The player with the most estate and most money at the end of the game wins!

 

Stratego

The first to capture the enemy flag from the other side wins the game. This board game requires strategy, as the players must devise a plan for capturing the opponent’s flag. There are two players and two armies in this thought inducing board game. This game is the perfect mind test for a Friday night that will help improve analytical skills.

 

Would You Rather

Free of charge, would you rather is the perfect family activity to play around the campfire. The trick is to think of two options for would you rather? Thus, for the first round of inspiration, here are 50 would you rather options. Would you rather have the head the size of a tennis ball or the size of a watermelon? There are many would you rather options available on the Internet for those stuck on ideas.

 

Apples to apples

This family-friendly board game is a word game. You must match a card in your hand to the description that is on the table. You must choose a card in your hand that you feel best suits the answer on the table. The best answer wins the description card, and the amount someone has at the end of a game determines who will win. The awkwardly fun and adult version of this game is known as Cards Against Humanity.

 

Spend a few hours every weekend or at least one weekday evening playing a board game or activity together as a family. This time spent together will help strengthen family bonds. Some of the games and activities mentioned can be played during the family night. Take turns each week with a brand new activity to keep it fresh and interesting!
