Fun with Tubelox
When I saw an advertisement for Tubelox I knew my children would LOVE THEM! I reached out and have partnered with Tubelox to review their deluxe building set! Tubelox is not a new product much to my surprise! It has been around since the 80’s (no wonder I like it so much- good things came out of the 80’s). When the box arrived my children were so excited to see what was inside. When we finally … [Read more...]
Diaper Bag Roundup
I received these items to include in a review. All opinions are my own, your may differ.It has been 5 years since I had my last baby and a few weeks ago we welcomed number 4. I knew there had been a lot of new products that had come out and I wanted to enjoy some of them since I was technically starting over. Most of the things that I had saved were completely out of style, stained or not able to be reused. I was excited when Bumkins contacted me to review some of their … [Read more...]
Blue Man Group with Kids
We have enjoyed Blue Man Group a few times as a couple. Every time we come out laughing and happy and we always say to eachother, we really need to bring the kids to this. Well this past weekend we did just that. We brought all three of our kids, ages 9, 8 and 4 to the show. It was a blast as always. Its so special to enjoy the show again but this time through the eyes of our children. It was fun to see what non-verbal communication they were able to pick up on and the things they couldn’t … [Read more...]

Scribble n’ Play Product Review
Last year my son got a boogie board for Christmas. He loved it! We loved it. It was fabulous to use on the go and this was a great way to encourage the improvement of these skills without the pressure of worksheets and other more academic tasks. He was having fun while gaining finger control and muscle development. We unfortunately our Boogie board stopped working- we weren’t sure if it was because it had been left in the car or had been stepped on (you never know … [Read more...]

Blue Man Group Boston
I have decided that there is no place where an adult can feel young again like a performance of Blue Man Group. I decided that for my husband’s birthday I was going to do something a little different and go all out. We would head into the city, go to dinner, walk around and enjoy some entertainment. We like fun and we like funny! I knew that he wouldn’t enjoy a musical near as much as I would so I figured I would look for something that was a little more his style. That didn’t mean it had … [Read more...]

Seriously though it was so fun to see them enjoying the 4D features of this film.The movie was so much fun. It was great to watch my kids be “involved” in … [Read more...]
Tiny Love Product Review
I had recently received a few amazing products from Tiny Love. I absolutely adore these products. One of the products we received was the Discover the World Play Mat. What a terrific item! There are so many things I love about this design. First off I love maps- in fact we have a map of the United States in our play room. The fact that tiny love made the world their base for a baby play mat was indeed inspired. Not only do I love the colors and the cleverness about it but I love the … [Read more...]
Liquid Planet Review Candia, NH
Nestled in Candia, New Hampshire is the loveliest family waterpark you’ve ever seen. Liquid Planet is a wonderful place to bring your children during those toasty New England Summers. A park geared towards families with children under 12, Liquid Planet is something to rave about.When we first arrived my husband and I took advantage of the 1000 ft zip line. It was such a fun ride. The zip line cruises above the entire park. It was a lovely ride with a wonderful view of the park and its … [Read more...]
Owlet Baby Monitor Review
Bringing home a new baby is pure joy but it also comes with much adjustment and even more worries and fears. When I heard about Owlet Baby Care I was blown away. I contacted Owlet and told them how interested I was in their product and how impressed and grateful I was for the founders for providing such a wonderful product to parents everywhere.I will admit I am a pretty paranoid parent. I mean how can you not be. There is so much to worry about. I checked my babies at least 12 times every … [Read more...]
Review: Happy Crafters
Ever since I got my cutting machine I have wanted to venture out into the world of iron on vinyl.

I got a lovely package in the mail complete with iron on solids and patterns as well as some high quality indoor/outdoor vinyl. In addition I got a Weeder Tool. I had been … [Read more...]
