Giveaway: High School Musical 2 Tooth Tunes TURBO Toothbrush

October 3rd, 2008

Alright, I know what you’re thinking - this is yet another mention about Tooth Tunes.  What can I say, I really like the product.  Dr. DreamyMcSteamy and I even gave them as favors for our daughter’s 5th birthday party last week.  That’s what you can expect going to a dentist’s kid’s birthday - oral […]

Toy Review: SeaPals

September 29th, 2008

We recently received a Flame Angelfish SeaPals for my son and he was thrilled (partly because it was a fish, and partly because, well, it was a toy).  If you haven’t seen them in the stores lately, SeaPals is a line of web-interactive plush sea creatures that is perfect for the budding marine biologist.  […]

I Spy Private Eye: A great game for kids

September 25th, 2008

Since Karen and I are big-time bloggers now… (Sorry, I had to stop laughing.  You are allowed to join in or throw up in your mouth right now.) we recently received an I Spy Private Eye game from Briarpatch to try out with the kids.  I was familiar with the I Spy books, but had […]

How do you keep a kid entertained for hours? Try Crazy Forts!

September 23rd, 2008

When I was little I had a good friend that was like a sister to me.  We were always having sleepovers at each other’s house and our favorite activity was making forts in the living room where we could hide from the adults and share our secrets.  Our hideaways were pretty primitive and limited to […]

Laptop Lunch Bento Box

September 22nd, 2008

Has anyone noticed that bentos are all the rage nowadays?  In Hawaii, a bento is such a popular lunch or dinner item and perfectly fits an on-the-go lifestyle.  We take them to the park, for picnics at the beach, or just grab one for an easy meal. We held my daughter’s 5th birthday party at […]

Tooth Tunes Junior: I love this one even more than the original!

September 15th, 2008

Not long ago, I did a post on the Tooth Tunes toothbrush by Hasbro and Tiger Electronics and mentioned what a great product it is.  As a result I received a Jungle Book Tooth Tunes Junior sample for my two-year-old to try.  Woohoo for free stuff!  I couldn’t wait to try it out on him […]

My son has suffered from dry skin and mild cases of eczema since he was born.  And running the air conditioner all night at home certainly doesn’t help his condition - but it’s better than letting us all sweat like pigs around here. His pediatrician is always reminding me to apply […]

My Favorite Flashlight: Oval LED Flashlight

August 18th, 2008

I have a thing for flashlights and lanterns. Just check out our camping gear and you’ll see what I mean. Big Maglite flashlights, teeny little flashlights for the kids, flashlights with princess and cars on them, battery operated lanterns, fluorescent lanterns, propane lanterns, solar powered lanterns…you name it we got it. […]

NRS Aqua Blaster

August 15th, 2008

I got these cool water toys for the gang’s camping trip the other week. Primarily for the kids, but well, you know how it goes with men and toys…
Seeing how we all love water balloon fights, I figured they (again, primarily the kids) would love to do battle on the beach. Boy […]
