Introducing: Christmas Categories Party Game!

Lifestyle

Have you ever had friends and family over for the holidays and wished you had a Christmas-themed board game to keep everyone occupied? Despite it being the season of parties and get-togethers, of festiveness and fun, there are shockingly few games out there specifically devoted to the Most Wonderful Time of the Year. We decided to change that in 2022 with the introduction of our brand new Christmas Categories game!

Christmas Categories is an innovative take on a century-old parlor game. Players draw a Letter Card and then five “Question Cards” that they all need to answer with the given letter. Here are some examples of Question Cards:

  1. Actor who has played Santa Claus in a movie
  2. Something seen on an ugly Christmas sweater
  3. Item mentioned in The Twelve Days of Christmas
  4. Reindeer name
  5. Holiday word in a foreign language

Players then turn over the 1-minute timer and try to jot down creative and clever (and holiday-related!) answers for each answer. For example, say the letter is “P.” Here are possible answers:

  1. Paul Giamatti (in Fred Claus)
  2. Penguins
  3. Pipers Piping
  4. Prancer
  5. Père Noël (Santa Claus in French)

There are then two ways to score in Christmas Categories:

In one version, you can earn a point for every answer you match with other players. This requires you to think like your opponents and tests how well you know your friends and family members.

In the second version, you earn points for unique answers. For each valid response you have that no other player wrote down, give yourself a point!

Keep playing until you run out of “Question Cards,” then tally up everyone’s points at the end to declare a winner.

“Stuffing” would be a good answer here

The American Flag Should Bring Us Together

Lifestyle

You probably saw the news earlier this week that Harris Teeter and Kroger were pulling items from their America-themed “Freedom Series” from their shelves. This was obviously very disappointing for us to hear, as we at Better Dweller strongly believe that now more than ever the American Flag should be a powerful symbol to bring us together—not tear us apart.

In the United States today, there are so many things that divide us. Political tensions are at an all time high, and every day the media gives us some new reason to go at each others throats. This is not good for any of us. It is not good for our mental health, and it is not good for our democracy.

We want Americans to be able to relax, to not think about politics for a moment, and to live their best life. That is what we set out to do when we created the brand Better Dweller. We sincerely hope we are fulfilling our mission.

Coming Soon: Margarita Tumblers

Lifestyle

2022 is shaping up to be the summer of exciting new vacation products from Better Dweller. We already told you about our inaugural beach product, the American flag beach umbrella (now available on both Walmart.com and Amazon). Now we have another one for you: vacuum insulated margarita glasses.

Better Dweller vacuum insulated margarita glasses are coming soon!

Like the beach umbrellas, we came up with this product out of pure necessity. While vacuum-insulated tumblers are all the rage these days, somehow there are not any on the market in the shape of a margarita glass. This is wild, considering vacuum-insulated tumblers are designed to keep beverages cold in hot weather, and there is no more refreshing hot weather beverage than a classic margarita.

For some reason, there are actually many vacuum-insulated martini glasses out there. But who is trying to sip gin, vermouth, and olive juice poolside? I can enjoy a good martini when the occasion calls for it (shaken not stirred, of course), but honestly in 100 degree heat the thought is a tad repulsive.

As you can see from the image above, the tumblers have been produced, packaged, and are nearly ready to hit the market within the next month. Make sure to check back in regularly at BetterDweller.com for updates!

Have You Booked Your Summer Vacation Yet?

Lifestyle

Here in the nation’s capital, the weather has been all over the place lately. At the beginning of last week, the thermometer touched 80 degrees. Then on Saturday it snowed.

Fluctuations like this lead one to yearn for the consistent highs of summertime. All over the country, people are planning their summer vacations—something that is especially obvious if you have been tracking plane ticket prices over the past few months. It is time you do the same. And while you are at it, it is time you shop for your vacation essentials as well. I’m talking bathing suits, beach towels, coolers, things of that nature. I am also talking about one of the coolest new products available for the first time in 2022—the American flag beach umbrella.

Available on both Amazon and Walmart.com, our 6.5-ft beach umbrella is a way to express both your individuality and patriotism as you catch some rays on the shore. For years, blue has been the dominant color for beach umbrellas, creating something of an eyesore for your supposedly pleasant getaway. At least for the time being, we are still free in this country. This gives us the chance to show how much we love it by setting up a beach item decked in the stars and stripes.

The Better Dweller beach umbrella is an imposing 6 and a half feet tall and approximately 6 feet wide, and will protect your food, your beverages, and even your dogs from the sun, and you can also move your own beach chair under it when you are ready for a bit of shade. It features a tilting mechanism, so you can create the perfect angle to ward off the sun when desired. And of course it is waterproof. Furthermore, it comes with a carrying case for easy storage and transportation to and from the beach.

Your summer vacation will be here before you know it, and you do not want to be caught off-guard. Get your U.S. flag beach umbrella on Amazon or Walmart.com today!
