[twitter]We don’t have a video game console in our home, so that means I miss out on some huge kid trends. Skylanders Giants would be one.
You don’t have to play the game to appreciate the kid appeal in these characters. This week saw the release of Mega Bloks® Skylanders Giants™ Zeppelin Air Ship Assault, and my boys were immediately attracted to big colorful zeppelin and the chance to play with a flying eyeball.
As much fun as it is for free play with building blocks, getting a kit like this makes for some good father/son time. Zacharie can help sort the pieces, and since the instructions are all in pictures, he can follow them on his own. When all is done, he’s got a cool toy that he built “by himself.”
Now, eventually the basket falls off the zeppelin, a wing breaks off the basket, or some other piece falls out. That’s usually when it all gets mixed in with the bucket of other bricks and something new from their imagination is born.
I have TWO Mega Bloks® Skylanders Giants™ Zeppelin Air Ship Assault sets to giveaway (retail value $19.99 each). Just follow the instructions below. Good luck!

Last year my 7 year old got in trouble at school for role playing Skylanders. Her and some of her friends were different characters and they were running around. I just asked her and she doesn’t remember which character she was but she accidently scratched another student in the eye while flapping her “wings.” The principal called and said that it was an accident, however they had made the decision that the kids would no longer be able to play Skylanders because it was a “safety concern.”
I just realized you are a Canadian blogger (Found you through Google). I’m in the US, so I may be ineligible to win?
Yes, this contest is only open to US addresses.
My oldest son has become obsessed with anything Skylander related and it is becoming rather expensive!
Thanks for the chance.
I’ve been wanting to get the Skylanders game for my daughter and myself for a long time. The megablocks sounds like it would be fun for her little brother and I to build together!
My son loves building with Legos and he loves Skylanders. My son constantly is talking about strategy to me about all the different characters. He recently saved all his allowance money and purchased the game for himself on the Wii. I have to admit, it is a really cool game and I love playing it with him. He would love this set! Thanks for the offer!
My son & husband really enjoy playing this game together on the wii & when they say the commercial for these new blocks they were both SO excited!
