Birthday Parties

Birthdays only come around once a year and at Mastermind Toys, we believe every kid deserves a celebration with their friends! We picked out our favourite fuss-free and fun “Virtual Verified” activities that make for great online party ideas. Invite kids to learn new tricks and then put on a talent show, or race to see who can build a new LEGO set the fastest! For collaborative play, keep the kids engaged with classic games like Bingo, Pictionary, or Charades.

Organize a virtual party by following these easy steps:

Step 1: Choose an activity from our selection of "Virtual Verified" items and order one for each party guest to your home or pick-up curbside at your nearest Mastermind Toys store location.

Grandparents

There's nothing like the bond between kids and their grandparents. We know time apart can be hard, so we've rounded up the best games and activities that are "Virtual Verified"—perfect for spending time with family in a safe and fun way!

Talent Show

Have a performer in the family? Set up a time to host a magical performance, put on a hilarious puppet show, or amaze an audience with a talent show that can get both sides of the call involved!

Take the pressure out of a talent show performance by making it “improv”! Send each kid a mystery item and see what trick they can learn to show off to the crowd.
Add a little friendly competition to the mix with a face-off between the kids and the adults! Or encourage the kids to demonstrate their talent and see if they can teach the adults a new trick or two.

Family Game Night

Let the tradition of games night live on by easily adapting some of our favourite go-to’s to play virtually.

Pick a game where only one set is needed, or order double to get both households involved!
A great addition to any games party is the snacks! Send the recipes for your go-to goodies to each player to make at home and enjoy while you play.
Put a new twist on a game you know and love by making the rules your own. You can try shaking things up the next time you play Bingo by limiting the times a number is drawn—the person with the LEAST matches wins!

Books & Cooks

Distance doesn’t have to stop you from doing the things you love together. Set up story time with grandparents or try out a new recipe from our kids cookbook collection.

Bake together by sending a list of ingredients, without telling the kids what you’re making! See if they can guess along the way—the anticipation of finding out what you’re making will be half the fun.
Switch up story time and ask the kids to read YOU a story! Or you can take turns acting out a story with puppets or using funny voices.
Foster a love of reading with the older kids by starting a family book club! Plan a virtual gathering once a month to discuss a selected book that everyone has read, or carve out time to let each person share what they’ve been reading in a book review style.

Play Dates

Time with friends is a valuable (and fun!) part of growing up. Bring back playdates with the help of our "Virtual Verified" activities, expertly selected to help spark fun and imagination while kids play with their best pals, virtually!

Create Together

Kids can craft together with our selection of side-by-side activities.

Spark their creativity by sending each kid a surprise bag of craft supplies and watch as the little ones let their imaginations go wild.
Kids that craft together can inspire each other to make magic. Once they’ve completed the finishing touches, kids can even swap their creations!
Curate your very own virtual art gallery! Choose from our array of artistic mediums—from painting to play doh structures to pom pom art—and have each kid create their very own masterpiece.

Conversation Starters

Help kids kick start the conversation with the help of one of our joke or fact books!

How well can they tell fake from fact? Have kids find their favourite facts from one of the books in our collection, get them to add in a few fibs of their own, and challenge friends to guess what’s real and what’s rubbish.
Get a kick out of a comedy show! Let each kid take the (virtual) stage to try their hand at delivering some hilarious one-liners.
