Chuck E. Cheese – Review and Giveaway!
Kids are back in school and now it’s time to get back into a routine. No more cooking dinner late and staying up past their bedtime, no, it’s time for homework, dinner, showers, and bed. A routine my daughter hates but she’s gotta do it.
Sometimes, though, a routine can be broken and that’s what we love to go to Chuck E. Cheese!
But wait, it’s not Makenna nor Kendall’s birthday, right? That’s the amazing thing about Chuck E. Cheese – you don’t need to visit on a birthday or special weekend.
Families don’t realize how calm and enjoyable of an experience it can be if you attend on a Tuesday or Wednesday afternoon/evening after school or early in the mornings before lunch time. Our stores open at 10 a.m., and one treat I’ve heard that’s really popular is ordering the Apple Dessert Pizza or Cinnamon Sticks for breakfast!
Since school has officially begun in our house we like to give Makenna some incentives for good grades and doing her chores. Homework Helper rewards calendar helps them earn 10 free tokens to play games with for completing their homework every day for two weeks. Just print it off, fill it out and bring it in! Additionally, our Tokens for Grades program rewards their efforts each grading period throughout the year.
As a whole family we always love going to Chuck E. Cheese to play the games and enjoy the new and improved pizza!
Chuck E. Cheese wants FOUR of my readers to go and have a perfect family night out so they’ve offered up an awesome Guest Pass giveaway!
Each Guest Pass will get you 1 Large pizza of choice, 4 soft drinks, and 30 tokens!!

Well, to be honest, I do not like Chuck E. Cheese at all. I do however, love my boys and they LOVE Chuck E Cheese more than anywhere. I will take them there as a special treat from time to time. No offense to Chuck E. Cheese as an establishment at all, it’s the crowds, the unwatched kids and the chaos that I do not enjoy. My boys don’t mind any of those things, lol.

I appreciate your honesty. I didn’t really like it either but after finding the perfect time to go I had a whole new love for CEC. Usually, Tuesday or Wednesday afternoon/evening are the best times to go so try one of those days/times and see if that is better. You might experience less crowds and craziness and hopefully then you can enjoy CEC more.

We love chuck e cheese anytime but esp. When it is either too hot,too cold or rainy. Everyone loves the games and best part is that everyone usually rests good afterwards which is huge at our house since no one take naps anymore!
