About Card Caddy

“My name is Chris Nichols the inventor of the Card Caddy. When my step-son was around 5 years old, he was obsessed with Uno. I grew up playing card games of all sorts with my grandmother and wanted to foster that same love of cards with him. We carried around a couple of decks of cards, bound with rubber bands, stuffed back into the box, or just scattered in the bottom of a my wife’s purse. When it came time to play – often somewhere without a level, solid surface for the draw and discard piles – the stacks of cards fell over, blew away or slid down into the crevice of the car seat.

For Christmas that year, I made the original version of the Card Caddy in my workshop out of scrap wood. It was bulky and clunky, but it was a big hit and solved my frustrations. After a couple of iterations, I’ve put together an improved version and would like to the share the idea with card lovers everywhere.

Whether you’re a harried parent who wants a mobile entertainment option other than “a device”, a hardcore Trading Card Gamer who has a lot invested in your deck, or just someone who likes to have a deck of cards handy for a game-on-the-go, the Card Caddy is for you.”

Card Caddy comes in many sizes, and with several add-ons, you can connect to your caddy to make it your very own.

There are a plethora of ways you can use your Card Caddy. The first thing that came to mind with me was obviously my Magic decks. While digging around in the game closet I also came upon a deck of Phase 10 that was all rubber banded together. The cards were getting bent, and I realized that that was a brilliant use for the Card Caddy!

How I Use my Card Caddy

I am not a fan of card sleeves. Honestly. I hate them. I don’t exactly know why, but I always try to stick them on my Magic Cards and then end up ripping them all off the same day. I kept my main Magic deck in a plastic deck box, in the game closet, but it didn’t seal very well. I ended up using the Double Decker Card Caddy for my deck, as the single deck didn’t quite fit it because it’s a larger deck that is over 60 cards.

One of the greatest things about Card Caddy is the Add-Ons- the Card Caddy Cache and the Score Keeper. I personally don’t have much of a use for the scorekeeper addon, but it’s a great feature. The Cache, however, is brilliant! It can keep all you special dice and pieces with the cards. I always had a lucky life die that I used playing magic, so it makes me happy I can keep my die with my favorite deck.

I also like that you can use the caddy as a discard pile. It keeps the cards from sliding all over and getting bumped and mixed up.

My Thoughts

I really enjoyed Card Caddy. I think its a really innovative product. I feel like this is a product that can continue to evolve. If you would like to find out more about Card Caddy from Narrows Hill Games, you can visit their website, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram!

I live in Michigan, home of lots of water and brutally long winters. This winter, in particular, we were blasted with some brutally cold weather, and we were stuck inside for weeks. It’s finally heating up around here, and everyone is itching to get outside and get some fresh air and start moving! PlasmaCar can get most kids to drop the tablets, and grab their coats to go outside and play!

I reached out the PlaSmart to see if they would like to work together on a post about PlasmaCar and was sent one in exchange for my honest opinion. The twins were so excited when they first saw their PlasmaCar! It took a few minutes of me explaining how it works for them to get the gist of it, but after a few failed attempts, they were able to hop on and make it go forward, backward, and in circles.

Setting Up the PlasmaCar

The PlasmaCar is pretty easy to assemble and comes with most everything you need to assemble it, except for a rubber mallet. I imagine you could use something similar if you are careful, but a rubber mallet is recommended. The whole process took me about 15 minutes, max. I didn’t have any major issues at all and assembled it all by myself pretty easily.

About PlasmaCar

The sleek, innovative design of The Original PlasmaCar® features a patented safety seat, polypropylene wheels, and is kid-powered; kid approved! Sit with both feet on the footrests, turn the steering wheel and away you go. Turn and navigate in small spaces indoors, and ride outdoors on sidewalks, pathways, and any other safe, smooth, flat surface. The award-winning PlasmaCar® is easy to operate and helps your child develop coordination, balance, and motor skills while harnessing the natural forces of inertia, centrifugal force, gravity, and friction. PlasmaCar® is adult-friendly too: it doesn’t require an expensive power source that needs constant replacement, it provides kids with plenty of exercise, and it is quiet, the only sound you’ll hear is the sound of the wheels.

My Thoughts

Honestly, I was pretty blown away by how cool this thing is! The kids were riding it through the kitchen and dining room (because of all the snow outside), but we are super excited for this weekend because it’s supposed to warm up and we can take this thing outside and try it out over longer distances. I don’t exactly know what magic they put in this PlasmaCar to make it go, but it goes! It’s quiet, It’s sturdy, and it requires no batteries or cords of any kind.

This is one of those toys that you buy for your kids at a young age and they can grow with it (It holds up to 220lbs), and pass it down to younger siblings or their own children. It’s very sturdy hard plastic. This is a toy that if you buy it, it’s going to be with your family for a long time. It’s a great investment, and it gets kids outside (or in the kitchen in my particular case) and moving!

I love PlasmaCar and cannot say enough good things about it! PlaSmart has offered my readers a giveaway! How exciting! One winner will receive their very own PlasmaCar!
