For the siblings
Empowering kids to take control of their imaginations and creativity is baked right into any pennycake® activity. See what we recommend when it’s time for siblings to work together to set an adventure into motion:
SpinSpinShare™ Storyteller
Everyone has a story to tell. Sometimes, they just need a little help telling it. By spinning two or more spinners at a time, and telling a story that includes the spun prompts, your creative juices will start to flow. Any sized group can join in on the storytelling, but it’s perfect for groups with big imaginations and some time to fill.

JoinAround® Puzzle
Your youngest might not be able to help finish the 1,000 piece puzzle your oldest pulled out of the game cabinet. But this puzzle? It’s for your oldest, youngest, and everyone in between. Split into four slices, the JoinAround puzzle is for every puzzler to puzzle together. At 22, 36, 75, and 102 pieces respectively, this puzzle is anyone’s cup of tea.
WonderWalks ™ Exploration Game
WonderWalks™ is made up of six different categories to turn everyday outdoor experiences into engaging adventures. Each category is designed to initiate a new kind of sensory-rich play—from listening, to seeing, to smelling and more. Siblings can play together or in teams—they just need to pick their cards and attach them to the lanyards to get their adventure started.
For Mom
Celebrate Mom with the gift of quality time. Most families only spend a total of 37 minutes a day together. Now, there are gifts for any mom who wants to turn minutes into memories that last a lifetime. After all, she’s the glue that holds everyone together! She deserves some tools and accolades along the way.
What A Year Memory Box
How many times a year do you look at your kids and think, “When did you get so big?” This is the perfect gift for a parent who loves walking down memory lane, and getting their family involved in the process. A perfect place to store trinkets, pictures, and stories from the year, What A Year makes memories… literally.
On-the-Go
So much time together is spent on the go--in the car, in a waiting room, at soccer practice. Let’s face it, there are only so many times you can play “Eye Spy” before it gets old. Help a parent in your life get ahead with on-the-go versions of Mix It Up® and ChatterTime®. Games can be tossed into a bag and pulled out to create memorable moments anytime, anywhere.
GamesInCase ™ Dry Erase Activities
Whether it’s in the doctor’s office waiting room, courtside at a sibling’s basketball practice, or in the car on the way to the next errand to run, kids (and moms) like having things to do in the meantime. Now, you don’t even need to have a charger nearby. GamesInCase™ is the pennycake® way to fill any pocket of time. These open-ended dry erase games are made to play together, again and again. Play, wipe, and pick the next one.
For Dad
Dad, dad, he’s our man, if he can’t do it, no one can! Dads bring so much into any family’s life—from opening a stubborn jar, to turning a hard situation into a teaching moment. Celebrate a rad dad that makes every day cool with the gift of memories to be made.
FrameTheFun™ Family Bucket List
Whether it’s fishing, hiking, playing a sport, or going to the zoo, FrameTheFun™ is the perfect way to make plans that actually end up happening. This is the perfect gift for the parent who wants to get in on the action and set the tone for the events ahead.
