You don't want to hear me sing - even if it is at a karaoke bar with a ton of other people who are also tone deaf. My poor child doesn't even get to hear lullabies from her mommy- it's that bad! So when I was asked to review Sing4 for Nintendo Wii, I thought it would be an interesting review, considering my hubby, who is also tone deaf, doesn't realize he can't sing. Sing4 comes with a microphone in the box which I thought was an awesome ...

Santa Claus is Coming to Town for Nintendo Wii Review and Giveaway!
My toddler is really getting into the idea of Christmas and Santa Claus and this is making my hubby and I excited about this holiday season. I actually felt bad for the first time ever that Christmas is only one day and wished it could last longer. Each time my little girl sees bells and lights, she immediately shouts, "Look Mommy! It's Christmas!!" Another thing she's getting into is the Nintendo Wii. I know two is a bit young to be playing ...
Punch Time Explosion XL
When I got my Sega Genesis many (many, many) years ago, some of the hottest games of the time were fighting games. I can honestly tell you, fighting games did not corrupt me in any way, nor did I walk up to random people on the street and try to throw them onto moving traffic (although the thought may have crossed my mind at one point or another.) Punch Time Explosion XL is one of those games that brings back memories of the old style fighting ...
Dagedar for Nintendo DS Review
My oldest nephew is very into video games and barely puts down his Nintendo DS long enough to greet people when they come over. I knew the way to his heart when I saw him yesterday was to give him the latest video game I received to review: DaGeDar. I'll be honest. I've heard of DaGeDar, but I have no idea who or what it is and what it does. I guess it really doesn't matter, because when you have a kid who loves characters and video games, they ...
Zumba Fitness 2 for Nintendo Wii!
Do you feel like everyone around you is talking about Zumba? I'm sure you know at least ONE person that has attended a Zumba class. The craze for Zumba could not come at a better time! Two years ago, after I game birth to my little girl, everyone was talking about Zumba and the magical weight loss program that was fun and effective. I tried to jump on that bandwagon, but I could not commit to going to a gym a few times a week at that point in my ...
Teaching kids about oral hygiene sponsored by Oral-B Stages!
I recently had the opportunity to work with Oral-B and host a Mommy Party to spread the word about getting children into a good oral hygiene routine. I have a large circle of moms, from relatives, to friends, and even a mommy Meetup group that has over 130 members! When mommies get together, they often voice concerns over their own child's development and various stages they go through. Most of the moms in my circles have children who are the ...
Where do you store all your family’s memories?
Photo storage has always been an issue for me. I simply just do not trust electronics after an incident that happened one year in college. I lost an entire semester's worth of work on my USB drive. It was there one minute, then POOF, the next it was gone. I was devastated, to say the least. I never really recovered from that incident, as I backup my files, especially the important ones, on more than one source. I have an external hard drive where ...
When making holiday cookies turns disastrous…
I don't think an emergency trip to the doctor is suppose to be part of a cookie-making routine. I posted a few days back that I was planning on making holiday cookies with my toddler, and I went out and purchased a bunch of cookie cutters and fun sprinkles for our baking day. Yesterday was the special day and we prepared all morning. Once our dough was done chilling in the fridge, cookie magic was going to take place. My daughter had other ...
