  • The Active Life Mat – The specially-designed mat controller is bundled with the game so you can jump straight into the action (game also available standalone)

My Thoughts

My kids loved this game for the sheer competition of it, healthy competition I might add! They had so much fun running and jumping and laughing, it is the perfect game for them to play especially during family game night where we can all gather around and have fun. Good graphics and hours of fun, unless of course they get tired out and pass out before they can play again like my toddler did. She played too even though she didn’t understand the concept she did run like mad, even won once on accident lol.

I have an extra copy of Active Life Explorer for one lucky Dirty t Shirt reader to win, please see rules below to enter to win today. Prize is not guaranteed to arrive before the holidays. Oh yeah, before I forget, Exotic adventure and bananas just got together too! Chiquita Bananas has partnered with NAMCO BANDAI to launch the new Active Life Explorer video game. Enter the Explore the Lost City Sweepstakes for a chance to win one of several great prizes, including a Trip to the Bahamas & Stay at the Atlantis! Get the official rules here.

    My favorite family activity is gathering the family around for a movie night. Sitting all scrunched up on one couch until we’re cozy, and sipping hot chocolate as we watch The Notebook is one of the best experiences I’ve had.
