WORD WITH FRIENDS

Hey everyone,

Calling all iTouch users out there. We want to challenge you!!!! Uncle Ted and Uncle Shawn are both playing a fun new game called "Words with Friends." This app for the iTouch lets you play scrabble with anyone including us!!!

Download the FREE version of this game onto your iTouch. Then go to CREATE GAME and then search for us under USERNAME.....theyorkboys.....tedsickler. We can't wait to play some games with you. You make a move, then the next time we pick up our iTouch/iPhone, we make our move. It's like a long distance scrabble game. Cool huh???

There is a version of Chess for Friends, but I need to learn how to play chess first.

We'll be looking for your name to pop up soon.

Love,
Uncle Shawn & Uncle Ted

TOY STORY MANIA SECRETS REVEALED



Hey everyone,

I know some of you have already been on the Toy Story Mania ride this summer and others will be going next year. Well, here are some secrets to the ride. (I don't think these work for the upcoming Wii game that is coming out.) Have fun reading through them and maybe remember these hints for the next time you ride.

Toy Story Mania has secrets to getting a high score and below you will find the keys to revealing some targets worth a lot of points. Many of these strategies require cooperation between you and the person in the vehicle with you. Additionally, it helps if both of you have good practice at the attraction as some require good accuracy and quick speed.

To help differentiate between the single player and two-player strategies, we've used colors to distinguish between the two. Red indicates the strategy is for one player, while yellow indicates it's best achieved with two players.

Hamm and Eggs
In the lower left or right corner (depending on the screen you are facing) is a hen house. Shoot the fox that is on top of the hen house (500 points) and then shoot the chickens that come out of the house very quickly (worth 1000 and 2000 points) and repeat this process the entire round.
Green Army Men Shoot Camp

A few seconds into the start of the round there will be two plates worth 2000 points that will shoot up into the air. If both you and your teammate hit both plates then a slew of other plates will appear with high point values will pop up.

Bo Peep's Baaa-loon Pop
There are two clouds located in the upper left and upper right corners of the screen with about 5 balloons to pop on them. Shoot four of the five balloons in each of the hovering clouds before popping the fifth and final balloons at the same time as your partner. If the last balloon on each cloud is popped at the same time (usually requires both players to coordinate), the falling balloons will be worth 2000 points each. There is about a second or two window to pop the last balloon on one cloud after the other cloud's last balloon is popped.

Shooting the low point flowers releases higher point bees.

Buzz Lightyear's Flying Tossers
If you hit all the aliens in the ship (8 aliens, worth 100 each) before even one can re-spawn, the ship launches to reveal a "monster" who opens his mouth and lets you rapid fire in your rings for 500 pts, then 1,000 pts a shot. Do this early so you can repeat the process again. Aim at 1,000 or 2,000 or the 5,000 point rocketships on the side during this quiet time, but come back to the monster when he's ready.

Woody's Rootin' Tootin' Shootin' Gallery
In the beginning of the round, there are a number of targets that when you shoot them spawn new targets. If you and your teammate can shoot each target once, then each target will disappear, and the screen will explode to reveal new bullseyes worth 1000 and 2000 points.

Shoot a plunger into the saloon doors. A bunny will pop out, and so will about 8 targets on top of the building. Four are worth 500, and the others are 1000.

In the mine carts scene, after the first three carts come by, hit the bat on top that appears for 1000 points. Then hit the mine carts again and then hit the new bat that is worth 5000. If you can hit that bat too, then all the mine carts that come out will be worth 5000 points.

In the finale of the game, there is a large target. Hit the target repeatedly as fast as you can for point values of 500, 1000 and 2000.

20 Questions

Hey everyone,

I think some of you out there have the 20 Questions hand-held game that guesses what you are thinking. Well, you can also play ONLINE!! Check the site out here.

They have different versions like the classic, TV, sports, Harry Potter, movies, musics and Disney. It is my understanding that they when you play the Disney one online, you are helping the company figure out what Disney items (movie, parks, etc.) people would guess the most.

For Shawn it correctly quesses the Hunckback of Notre Dame. It guessed correctly for Mr. Ted Daisy Duck and Cruella Da Ville. It did not guess the Tree of Life correctly.

Have fun!!

love,
Uncle Shawn & Mr. Ted

WEBKINZ DAY!!!


Hey kids,

Did you make sure to login on Tuesday for Webkinz Day? I did and got some cool stuff. The present that I got had three things: a coin, a piece of cake and a trophy. I spun the SUPER wheel and got the ribbon tree that you can see above. Doesn't Mr. Wiggles look cool with his shades? I want to enter him into a pagent and see if he wins.

Mr. Wiggles has been going to the academy to take classes and get better jobs. The job I can't do it the supermarket one. It goes too fast!!!

CHRISTMAS GAMES


Hey everyone,

Here are some fun games I have found just in time for Christmas. HAVE FUN!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS - This fast paced game is about 10 seconds long where you have to click as fast as you can to get as many presents as possible. My high score is 39. BEAT THAT!! (HINT- There is nothing to click on, you just have to click your mouse as fast as possible.)



SNOW DAY - Keep it snowing to close school!! Hint - Hold down the mouse to get it to go higher. Also, the snowball has to "explode" in the cloud to change it to snow. Good luck!!


SNOW LINE - This is like the game Brandon showed on his site. You have to draw lines for Santa to follow on his sleigh. (HINT - Start the line UNDER Santa so his sleigh will hop on the line.)

Love,
Uncle Shawn & Mr. Ted
