Product reviews for trendy Moms & Dads, their children & pregnant moms
A few years ago my extended family's collection of Playmobil finally got passed down to my kids. Played with by countless of my cousins, including my brother and I, the collection of figures, vehicles, horses, hats and accessories brought back great memories as I watched my kids now play with the same pieces. Fortunately Playmobil has kept busy … [Read more...]
We love our local toy store. While I do shop at national chains, I also spend much of my time visiting our local toy store. Partly I love that I'm supporting the local guy but I also like seeing some of the more unique toys and lines that they offer that I can't find at our national stores. I actually got my kids some Zoob toys (see the image) at … [Read more...]
Here's a cute new toy for their Easter baskets: Fijit Friends Newbies. These handheld toys are like their parent counterparts but smaller and pocket or hand-sized. Like the regular sized Fijit Friends, the Newbies are interactive toys that sing, dance and have their own personality. They are cute-looking and colorful and I think this would … [Read more...]
When it comes to toys I am always looking to find ones that are both fun and educational. And even more so with the holidays quickly approaching. With my son being almost a year old every day is an adventure, and everything that crosses his path is in some way a learning experience.

Yesterday, Cole and I headed over to our local Learning Express toy store. They were having a huge Columbus day store-wide sale, and it's also getting close to Cole's 5th birthday. Each year we go to Learning Express and make a "birthday bucket" which is basically like a kid's wish list of toys they want to get. We do it for family & … [Read more...]
It's never too early to find a great stocking stuffer and I'm picking this one for a top stocking stuffer choice for the 2011 Holiday season! I first hear about Shoulder Buddies at BlogHer, where I got a sample Shoulder Buddies to bring home to my kids along with some other toys. This little toy didn't seem like much to me. It reminded me of … [Read more...]
While this technically belongs to my 7-year-old, I think my 37-year-old "other" child has been having more fun with this. (As have I!) Perplexus is a maze game. Using the 3-dimensional toy, players have to try and keep the marble on its path. As you move, you come across barriers and are challenged to get around them without dropping the … [Read more...]

This is the first time that an aircraft has been part of a Hess Truck set. 14-wheeler tractor trailer features a flatbed trailer with hydraulic lift and runway lights that doubles as a launch pad for … [Read more...]
This is one of those toy suggestions that everyone Mom is going to curse me for. But your kids will love me. Stinky the Garbage Truck was the big gift in our house this week for Cole's 4th birthday party. He's been watching the commercial for weeks now and it's been at the top of his "Must Have" list. While the retail list is pricey ($59.99), … [Read more...]
