Minecraft goes analog

Minecraft is one of today's most popular video games for young kids and tweens. It is also one of the most addictive. You can go anywhere in the game and do anything you want—and that makes it difficult for children to stop playing.

Thanks to Ravensburger for this Minecraft-based board game. It's the perfect excuse to down screens, spend quality time together as a family, and allow kids to touch and interact with something tangible. It's a great way to stimulate their brains too. Designed in collaboration with Mojang, the $39.99 game is geared for two to four players and takes 30-60 minutes to play. Well, that beats the average daily time my 6-year-old daughter spends in the Overworld.

Product Description:

"Minecraft: Builders & Biomes comes with high-quality game pieces including 64 resource cubes, 64 building and Monster cards, 36 weapon tokens, 4 player boards, 4 experience counters, 4 character skins, 4 game piece Bases, 12 overview cards, 1 resource cube base, 1 support structure, and instructions."

Released in 1969, Midnight Cowboy is a raw, sometimes uncomfortable, often heartbreaking, but ultimately deeply human. And seriously, the chemistry between Ratso Rizzo (Dustin Hoffman) and Buck is pure gold. Rewatching a movie is like visiting an old friend. You know their idiosyncrasies, their stories, bu...

More Than Just Smiles and Sunsets

Ayala Museum is currently hosting "Amorsolo: Chroma" - a spectrum of brilliance you wouldn't want to miss. It is more than just a collection of paintings; it’s an experience. It’s a masterclass in light and color, a journey into the mind of a Filipino genius, and a fresh perspective on an artist many of us thought we knew. The first thing that you will notice you when you step into "Chroma" is… well, the chroma. While Amorsolo is famed for his mastery of light, this exhibition dives deeper into his entire color palette. It’s like entering a vibrant, living spectrum. Go check it!
