Get Cooking with Cooking Mama 5

If you have a gamer on your holiday shopping list this year then you may want to check out Cooking Mama 5 – Bon Appétit.  The new game was recently launched, just in time for the holiday season and it’s a great choice for kids and adults.  I was provided a review copy of Cooking Mama 5 from Reverb Games.  Any opinions expressed are my own.

I’ve been a fan of Cooking Mama for a long time.  When I was pregnant with my first child my husband got me the game as a way to pass time when I was either home sick or in the hospital on one of my extended stays.  Back then I was playing the game on Nintendo DS and on Wii.  My family and I liked playing together to see how would complete the meals the fastest.  When I had kids my daughter started playing that same original Cooking Mama as well.  It’s one of the first video games my kids played and they loved it.  I really like the game because it’s can be adapted for different ages.  If you like a challenge and want to complete you can or you can take you time and practice the meals.  Check out this trailer of the game below:
