B3 3 Corn Hole Real Wood Bean Bag Toss Game will get the kids outdoors

B3 3 Corn Hole Real Wood Bean Bag Toss Game will get the kids outdoors

If you are looking for a gift that will get the kids outdoors, corn hole is always a hit. This B3 3 corn hole bean bag toss game is unique compared to the boards you are used to. The first thing I noticed is how much easier it is to store a narrow rectangle base than a bulky squared base! We keep our yard games in the RV for campsites and this unit is just as fun and much easier to store.

Each board has 3 holes and the unique square-shape bags in red and blue to form teams. With 3 holes, you can create even more scoring options in your game. When you are done playing, the boards velcro and strap together and the heavy rope handles make it easy to carry around. The board is real wood and very durable.

While the kids ask for video games and gift cards, perhaps a gift that will get them outside is necessary. This makes a great game to send teens and college students as well. Campers and beach-goers will enjoy as well.

Shop FossilEra for high quality fossils, collectable minerals and crystals

Maybe I can just show you all of the photos I took of my order from FossilEra because they are so much fun. I was blown away at the quality that arrived in my order. I was browsing their website looking at stones, crystals and even shark teeth. I saw that there were some fossil plates and I love to entertain so I was intrigued. I ordered the 11.1″ Tropical Hardwood Petrified Wood Dish from Indonesia. Wow! It is gorgeous and heavy.

Petrified Wood

I decided I want to find a place in the bar area and have visions of placing a few wrapped candies or mints to make it useful if entertaining. I love all the imperfections I would expect from a real piece of petrified wood. FossilEra really impressed on the way it was packaged. It was wrapped very securely.

They even included a free gift. I found this cut and polished Agatized Ammonite Fossil. My teen claimed it right away for his nightstand. Every item comes with an identifier card so you have all of the descriptions on your piece.

I also ordered a few Worry Stones. I chose Black Obsidian from Mexico and the Red Jasper is from an unknown region, but my son loves fidgeting with these and wanted a ‘red’ stone. I ordered a few extra because they are fun to add to gifts.

About the Manly Man Company

The Manly Man Company is a veteran-owned business. They’re located in Southern California. The idea started out as a modest conversation between the owner Greg Murray and his wife Jacquie. He had bought her a bouquet of flowers and asked himself: “Why isn’t there a gift that is comparable for men?” Sure, men can get flowers for occasions, but, it’s not customary. The couple kicked around some ideas and his wife presented him with the very first rendition of what is now referred to as a Man Bouquet of beef jerky: Beef Jerky sticks with thin pieces of jerky cut into flowers, given in a beer glass “vase”.

After the Murrays invented man bouquets as the perfect Valentine’s Day gift for him, Greg reached out to a schoolmate, whom he enlisted in the Marine Corps with Ben Wynkoop, to come aboard with his wife as a third co-founder, and then ventured out to the masses: online.
