Little girls can never have enough dolls - or at least my little girl can't! She loves all types of baby dolls, especially since she's become a big sister. Now, my youngest daughter is also getting into dolls and I find it so interesting how an almost one year old tries to care for a baby doll. She cradles her older sister's dolls, and has even tried burping them! I was never into dolls as a child, so I wasn't familiar with Götz before ...

Play Time With The Octonauts!
If you've heard it once, you've heard it hundreds of times: Creature Report! Creature Report! We're done with the mission... Octonauts at ease, Until the next adventure! My toddler can't wait until the next episode of Octonauts is on. Her favorite character is Kwazii, and when asked what the Octonauts is about, she explains, "Octonauts help creatures and sometimes get slime on them." Very straight and to the point, yet precise! So, you can ...

Every morning my boys are allowed to bring one toy with them to school. My 4 year-old has to keep it in his school bag and my 3 year-old is allowed to play with it until circle time. My older son typically takes one of his Superheroes or his favorite stuffed animal doggie. But this morning he asked if he could bring his Road Racer from MOTORWORKS.

Happy Birthday to Talking Ginger! #gingersbirthday (Giveaway $150 Value)
From the moment the first iPad came out, it seems that Talking Tom was already a hit. We were introduced to Talking Tom by my nephew, and we have loved him since. As soon as I received my iPhone, I knew Talking Tom would be the first app to download. My toddler had hours of fun talking to her beloved cat, and as more apps became available to download in the Talking Tom family, we tried out each one. Right now, my toddler has two ...
Dora Rocks Out At @Target! @NickelodeonPR
If you've been tuning in to Nick Jr, then you might be familiar with all the buzz about the latest toys from the Dora Rocks collection. Each and every time my toddler sees that commercial, her eyes light up and for just a moment she envisions herself to be a mini rock star along with Dora. We love Dora; she takes my toddler on a learning adventure with each episode. That's why when the Dora Rocks product line launched, I knew it would be a great ...
Pretend Play with Melissa and Doug Play Food
I find my preschooler often rummaging through my kitchen items to find something to play with in her play kitchen. I've found "real" forks and spoons in her kitchen, along with some pantry items, so it was only a matter of time before I looked into her own "fake" pantry items to add to her kitchen. She also loves to pretend her kitchen is a shop, and will scan grocery items through her invisible scanner and bag them. I love her imagination ...

The other day I had my two nephews over for a playdate. My toddler was excited that her older cousins were coming over to play, but what she didn't know was that they would not be interested in dolls, castles, or anything pink. My toddler asked my oldest nephew to play princess with her and after curling his nose in disgust he replied "8 year old boys don't play with princesses." She asked if he would like to be Prince Charming instead, and as ...
