Nintendo sent us a copy of Mario Sports Superstars to review. All opinions are my own (and, my eight-year-old’s). Check out the cute printable Super Mario bookmarks below, all inspired by my favorite video game! This post contains affiliate links.
When I was a kid, I LOVED Super Mario Bros. and basically anything associated with it. As an adult, I still love those games – and have been happy to pass the love along to my kids. My son has a 3DS, and I made him download Super Mario World immediately. Of course, he loves it because it’s awesome. Also, I love it because when he can’t pass a level he passes it over to me and I DOMINATE.
The Nintendo love is strong in this family! The newest obsession is Mario Sports Superstars for 3DS and OMG YOU GUYS IT HAS HORSE RACING.
I told the kids I was done with video games and only ever wanted to play games I already knew (like Mario, Tetris, and Zelda – old school style, y’all). But then I took a gander at Mario Sports Superstars and they had HORSES and I changed my mind.
The new game has soccer, horse racing, baseball, tennis and golf. Players can play alone or take on friends in multi-player games. Of course, in true Mario fashion, it’s kid-friendly and full of surprises and super cute characters.
I just want to talk about the horse racing for a second, though, because you can build your own stable of race horses, care for them, and train them for races. I’m pretty sure Claire and I will be fighting over this for months to come.
According to my eight-year-old, the game is “AWESOME!” and I would have to agree.
When my kids aren’t playing video games, they’re often reading. Just yesterday Claire asked me for a bookmark to mark her place in a chapter book she’s attempting. I gave her one of these printable Super Mario Bros. bookmarks, of course!

OMG! Charlee has a 3ds! It is totally being confiscated. New Mario?! I’m IN! The Super Nintendo and PS1 hooked up in my bedroom aren’t enough anymore. I have the original Mario Bros downloaded on my Wii. Zelda, too. But new? SOLD.
RIGHT?! SO much fun.
Love it! My kids are big time gamers and I have an obsession with making bookmarks too 🙂 I’d be so pleased for you to link up at my new linky party, Support Your Fellow Crafter at Support Blog for Moms of Boys! Hope to “see” you soon 🙂
Love your subway art design of the bookmarks and fun colors! Thanks for sharing on Funtastic Friday!
