I’m sure you will agree that keeping kids entertained while you are traveling can be hard. We have traveled with the girls on a few long journeys (flying to Peru for example), on some fairly longย train journeys like the one we did to Durhamย which took 3 hours, or more regularly car journeys visiting the in-laws which usually takes around 2 hours. On all these occasions we have prepared ourselves for the different types of journey. This can be very difficult although the thing that has consistently worked extremely well has been giving the girls a tablet where they can watch videos or play some games.
Tablets can also be very handy when you are in restaurants and waiting for food, or if its a rainy day and you need to stay inside and they are not in the mood for playing with any of their toys or games. Having a tablet with good and varied games can really be a lifesaver in these moments!
We have recently been tryingย Poki games on Bella’s iPad and the games have been super fun. Poki.com is a personalised discovery platform for free online games. Yes, you are reading that correctly – these are free games! How fantastic is that? You can play more than 20,000 games for free! They offer the best free games that are playable on all devices, so you can play on yourย computer, smartphone, or tablet. Depending on what device you are playing on you can use your keyboard, mouse, or touch screen to control puzzles, heroes, and racecars.
They will also hand-pick new games for you daily. This is very handy as it means there are always new games to try every day based on what games you like. Bella’s taste is quite varied as she loves fashion games like dressing up dolls as well as games involving trains and plains. She likes a little bit of everything which I love a lot about her!
She has been trying some Frozen games as well as some educational games,ย such as one which was about maths. We also liked one where you can test your geography knowledge. We liked these ones a lot which is great as I really want Bella to grow her knowledge about the different countries and continents of the world and where they are, especially because I was born in Peru so for me its crucial that she understands where Peru and other countries in South America are located. These games are both fun and educational which is great!
Other games that Bella enjoyed playing were PetPop Party and Flappy Bird. I tried playing the last one with her too, which I found very hard to do even though it looks so easy! I think Bella was much better than me, LOL! It is amazing how our kids can be so good at these things now!
They offer you some great online games which cover popular categories, like cooking games, football games, and dress-up games, as well as games based on your favorite movies or TV shows, such as Finding Dory. You can also find classic titles, including Mahjong, Bubble Shooter, and Bejeweled, as well as new games, such as Slither.io, Color Switch, and Pixel Warfare 5. Bellaย has been playing slither.io which she thought was cool. You can play games in 3D, super-fun arcade games, and all of the popular puzzle games! Isn’t it great?
What I liked about Poki games, is that it is a portal for the whole family, so we can all play games and have fun together!

Never heard of Poki,but i do now thanks for sharing and for the giveaway x
not heard of Poki but love the variety of games. thanks for the giveaway, keep up the great blog
I have never heard of Poki before reading this review – thank you – it sounds wonderful!
great having a variety of games fantastic giveaway
Never heard of Poki before but it sounds great.
though having never heard of Poki the concept of free games for kids is attractive
I had not heard of Poki before. Free games for kids is a fab idea!
i like the idea of this and I think it would appeal to a lot of people as the incentive of getting free games is really good.
I hadn’t heard of Poki, seems to provide a wide range of games. Being FREE makes a big difference for children, families etc. We do like our children to learn and have fun. Though keeping them safe is also important. Games on Tablets can sometimes be useful when travelling etc.
I’ve not heard of it before but I like the idea that my grandchildren would be able to find something suitable whatever their mood without running up a massive bill for apps
all new to poki,but free is always good ๐
I had not heard of them but they sound great!
Love all the painted walls on your Instagram!… thye look really cool… I’m a massive fan of graffiti!…smashing comp!.. would love to get my hands on an amazon fire 7. ๐

Not heard before this, but have checked them out, great idea and games
Never heard of Poki but looks good ๐
Never heard of Poki before today but this is the second time I’ve come across it. Great idea the free games for kids though
I sympathise with the car trips it can be very hard to keep them entertained and the longer the journey the harder it can be. You are so right when you say that you need to prepare for them. The longest I have done was 8 hours each way, which, because of planning, wasn’t half as bad as I had thought it could have been. I am sure POKI could have helped though!
Not heard of it before this review but I think it’s a great idea. Thanks for this!
Never heard of Poki but to be honest I’m not a big fan of computer games

no, I haven’t heard of Poki before either, looks interesting

Not come across them before and it sounds great but am I right in thinking they are online only, as that makes them unsuitable for travelling, and would limit the benefit
I’ve never hear of it until now. I’m sure the kids will like it though
I’ve never heard of Poki before, but it really sounds great having so many different choices of games! I think kids would love it!

Poki sounds incredible…definately going to check it out. My only concern is if you are travelling in the car without wi-fi you can’t play the games – they aren’t downloaded and stored like apps or am I wrong?
Never heard of before, but sounds good
I’ve not heard of Poki before but love the wide selection of game types available – great that they are suitable for all the family.

have never heard of them before but looks good
I’ve heard of them but never played with my children, I think they have played them at Nanny’s house. I think it’s good to have free games – with the lifespan of new things often being quite short I think it would be extremely expensive to have to shell out every time they became bored of one x
