My daughter and I played this game on stream: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1928231849?t=00h51m37s
I like the improvements made to this game, the different seasons, maps and chairs add replayability to the game. The restaurant, pool, and tv were really nice touches as well. The restaurant didn't work for us in multi-player, but the pool did and that was really fun to do.
The player selection with 2 players was a bit odd, I couldn't figure out how to select my player (2nd player) until you told us how to do it on stream. Once the game started, the controls were great though.
The X-mas version we played was fun too. There was that black creature thing that would push us forward, and some black cloud somewhere in the track that blocked our vision. It's a pity we couldn't hear the music (due to our streaming setup).
Overall, lots of fun!
