A few years back, the various companies that make games started an advertising campaign about the joys of Family Game Night. I kind of dismissed it because my two boys were not even close to being able to follow directions and let’s not even discuss what would happen if they lost a game.
Fast forward to [...]
Spike the ULTRA DINOSAUR made by Imaginext® charmed his way into my daughter’s heart the first time she saw him. I know you’ve seen the displays. All the kids keep pushing the button to make him stomp and ROOOAARR!!! He is too cool!
We met Spike for the first time Christmas morning. I had him wrapped up in such [...]
I’m not a mom who enjoys really ”messy” projects. So, when my boys kept asking for Martian Matter Alien Maker Playset – Spaceship I was a little apprehensive. I took a quick look and saw that it came with “Lunar Lava” and “Martian Mud” and thought that this was going to end up being a mess [...]
Last summer, we took a trip to Washington, D.C. While we were at the American History Museum, we discovered a really cool building toy, ZOOB! We had never seen anything like it and it was very hard to pull our 7 and 6 year old boys away from it to move on to other exhibits [...]
My daughter wanted a racetrack for Christmas. I saw the Fisher Price Shake n’ Go! Xtreme Speedway advertised and thought it would be perfect for her. It seemed easy to use and durable enough for a 3 year old. The cars are also rechargeable.
It doesn’t take long to get the track assembled. The pieces go [...]

Finally the birthday party is over and the mess is all cleaned up. Which present does my daughter want first? Rocky the Robot Truck! She received this from my parents and it’s her favorite toy now. He would make any little boy (or girl in my case) very happy.
Rocky was on demo mode for the store and [...]
My boys are a dream for the advertising industry. Every time they see something new on a commercial, they tell me they need it or that I need it. I typically just nod and smile and tell them to save their money. Eventually they forget about whatever it was and move on to the next [...]

For my son’s first Christmas, a friend gave him an adorable, hand-decorated piggy bank. It’s been sitting on top of my son’s dresser, getting filled and filled, for almost four years now and he absolutely adores it. Having a special bank to stick coins in is an exciting part of childhood. Kids learn about saving [...]
