Real Kids Shades Giveaway! Ends 6/6

May 18, 2013 by Maggie · Leave a Comment

If you know me you’d know that I slather the sunscreen on my kids. I want to protect them from skin cancer now & for the future. Another thing most people don’t realize is that the sun can also cause major eye damage. Water play & skiing are the most damaging to the eyes besides staring straight into the sun, which you should never do by the way! You should wear protective eye gear as often as you can. Did you know that children’s eyes are at increased risk for permanent eye damage from sunlight until they’re at least 10 years old? Yea.. Scary, and unlike skin cells, eye lenses cannot repair themselves. Once they’re damaged they’re damaged forever and can lead to serious eye disease and even blindness!

Real Kids Shades makes great sunglasses for kids. They’re not like the cheap crap you buy at toy stores. Actually wearing those cheap glasses can do more harm to a child’s eyes wearing them than not wearing anything at all. Shaded lenses without 100% UV-A/UV-B protection will relax pupils, causing them to dilate and let more harmful radiation into children’s eyes. Yuck! Real Kids Shades are specifically constructed to fit kids faces and their lifestyle. All their sunglasses are made exclusively for infants and children in kid-approved styles that are shatter proof, impact resistant and adaptable to sports and active lifestyles!

E is wearing the Glide shades. These are Rubber-tipped temple pieces and wrap-around metallic frames make these the kids’ shades that Mom and Dad will try on when no one is looking.

Entertaining boys can be expensive, dirty or difficult, but my nephews are usually easy to please. Isaac and Caleb helped me test out the Stomp Rocket on a breezy, but beautiful Saturday afternoon.

Lids ‘N Lizards Game Giveaway! Ends 5/18

April 27, 2013 by Maggie · Leave a Comment

Watch your kids flip over Lids ‘n Lizards! Practice articulation, categorizing, describing, and auditory and visual memory skills with these nesting lids. Place a magnet under each lid and let the flipping begin! Children name the photo object on the magnet and identify the category for each one. Plus hide the colorful lizards under the lids to surprise your students! The first student to uncover the most lizards is the winner.

Lids-n-Lizards

Lids N Lizards

My kids were pretty good at this game! It took my 4 year old a couple tries to get it. He wanted the ones with the lizards so every time he picked up an empty one he’d put it back and pick up until he found a lizard. It was actually pretty funny. He got mad because we called him a cheater. This is a really great game for learning and it’s super fun learning. It makes the kids more eager to want to learn. My older children who are 6 and 8 caught on pretty quick. Even after we were all done Caden played by himself for about 30 minutes! He loves it!

Here is a video of them playing!

Star Wars Costume Review!

April 9, 2013 by Maggie · 13 Comments


In our family Star Wars is serious business, especially to six-year-old Isaac. He’s been in love with Star Wars for years now and has just about every action figure, movie, toy and costume known to exist. He’s a Star Wars junkie! When I was asked to do a review for Costume Discounters, I jumped right on board!

Costume Discounters has a gigantic assortment of costumes! A few examples? Mickey Mouse, Barbie, Spiderman, Ninja Turtles, Power Ranges, Muppets, Nascar, Toy Story, Wizard of Oz, Angry Birds, Cinderella and tons more! Isaac decided he wanted the Boba Fett costume from the Star Wars collection. Oh, that collection? It has over 100 items for kids and adults! Costumes, weapons and more.

My FairyTale Books Personalized Kids Books use the child’s name, hometown, age and much more to create an exciting reading experience where your child has the leading role in their own adventure. Whether being the star in their very own circus to helping Elmo learn to count, there are many adventures your child can star in. A customized dedication is also included to make this a truly special gift that the child can cherish for years to come.

Review done by Donna’s Deals and More

Logan is really into dinosaurs right now. He likes playing with them, learning about them, and talking about them. I was so excited to get this book personalized with his information. He was the story’s main character in an adventure with the dinosaurs. As I held him and read to him, he stayed focused and interested. He thought it was just wonderful that the book was about him. His sister wants a book now that she is in. I think it is fantastic that this encourages reading! I love to read personally and think books are cool and I want my munchkins to share in that love for books. This is going to be a definite stocking stuffer for all of them!

Right now you can get 10% off your order if you use the coupon code BLOGGER2012 at checkout!

One lucky reader will be winning their very own personalized book! These are so great, and I know my Caleb would love to have an Elmo one. Enter to win below! Good luck!
