Disclosure: Product provided for review. All opinions are my own. Looking through the holiday lists this year, I can tell you I spot a lot of great toys that I know kids will love this season. I personally love the toys that I know the kids will get a ton of use out of, bonus points if all three of my kids can play together. Have an 8, 5, and 2 year old, there aren't many toys that appeal to all three of them at the same time, but I know when ...

Lightseekers Provides Augmented Reality Fun
Disclosure: Product provided for review. All opinions are my own. This upcoming holiday season is all about electronics and smart toys. We are a very tech-driven family and love to try out the latest gadget and toys, so when we were asked to review the new Lightseekers Awakening Toy from TOMY, we were ecstatic. My 5-year-old even said it was something she’s had her eye on, which surprised me because I didn’t even know she knew what it ...
A Spooktacular Halloween Party with PJ Masks!
Disclosure: My family received items as part of the PJ Masks Ambassador program. All opinions are my own. If you have kids in school then you know how busy October is with the various parties, activities, and events. My kids’ social schedules put mine to shame, as they have Halloween dances and parties with their friends. We definitely get our money’s worth when it comes to Halloween costumes and love when there’s a theme assigned to the ...
Get Moving With PJ Masks Musical Instruments by First Act
Disclosure: Products provided for inclusion. All opinions are my own. I always wondered if babies and children are musically inclined from birth. It seems that from their earliest days they respond to music and so many companies have marketed on the soothing aspects of sound. As babies learn to steady themselves on their feet, they will often bounce to a beat of music. It's so interesting how music becomes a big part of our lives from the very ...
Let Me Introduce You To Ben & Holly!
Last week we celebrated the end of summer with our closest friends. My girls are fortunate that each of their best friends are sisters as well, which, if you ask me, is pretty convenient! I've actually caught myself a few times watching them play together; it fascinates me that they will often switch play mates during their play dates. I joked with my husband that the secret to getting our own kids to play with each other is to have more kids ...
A Special Playdate Just for My Little Guy, Featuring The Thomas and Friends Super Station
Right before my son was born I knew we would outfit his room with trains. For his second Christmas, we got him a train table but the clumsy wood pieces kept him from enjoying the set. It wasn't until this past July that our love for Thomas the Train grew. We visited relatives in the south and my nephew had a Thomas and Friends train table set up and fully accessorized. My toddler fell in love immediately and I learned something new. Thomas and ...
The Grossey Gang Enters Their Third Season with 150 New Characters!
This post was sponsored by Moose Toys. All opinions are my own. When Shopkins first made their introduction, I didn't think it would be as popular as it was. As I watched my girls and their friends open up blind bag after blind bag I just didn't see the potential. Now Shopkins are as popular as ever, and the Grossery Gang is following suit in their third season. The third season of Grossery Gang joins the Moose Toys team with a launch of their ...
Pretend Play for National Sister Day!
This post is part of a sponsored campaign for Schleich. I received compensation for my participation, but my review and opinions are my own. In less than a month we will be celebrating National Sisters Day! In case you didn't know it was a "thing," it is, and it's celebrated on August 6th. I try to get my girls to understand the value of having a sister, especially since I never experienced that bond myself. My girls have their ...
